MY BELIZEAN PEOPLE




Wake Up, Stand Up, Straight and firm
Listen with your eyes and see with your ears
The way your Belizean people squirm with tears.
You have the power in YOUR hands;
Listen to me and understand.
We the Belizean People
Are the rulers of this our land
Join together and show these politicians.

Youths, you ALL have a say in what's happening now;
Speak up, express yourselves and SHOUT it out.
Look around you and tell me what you see
Happenings of destructions and pure poverty.
How can you just close your eyes
and pretend you do not see....
the tearing down of Our Belize...Our Paradise;
Our Land Of The Free.

When one looses the power to laugh
One looses the power to think straight
