Santana

Santana is a rock band based around guitarist Carlos Santana and founded in the late 1960s. It first came to public attention after they performed the song "Soul Sacrifice" at the Woodstock Festival in 1969, when their Latin rock provided a contrast to other acts on the bill. This initial exposure made their first, eponymous album a hit at the time, followed in the next two years by successful follow-ups Abraxas and Santana III. more »

You gotta free all the people in South Africa
You gotta make life worth living in Soweto
You gotta free all the people in South Africa
You gotta make life worthwhile, give a reason to smile

Freedom is a birthright given by Jah to man
You cannot claim it, this you must understand
Who are you to decide who has to give it up
Know it in your heart, that it?s wrong
They've had enough

You gotta free all the people in South Africa
Make life worth living in Soweto
You gotta free all the people in South Africa
Make life worthwhile, give a reason to smile

Slavery is brutal, it steals your identity
Wherever it?s living, suffer humanity
What leads you to believe you can treat people so?
You know it isn't right, give up the fight, let them go

You gotta free all the people in South Africa
Make life worth living in Soweto
You gotta free all the people in South Africa
Make life worthwhile, give a reason to smile

It?s not right, this hate for life you're teaching
No more fight, we're all in this together
You've lost sight, you'll never find what your soul is seeking
You, you abolish Apartheid

Can free, free, South Africa
Make life worth living in Soweto
You gotta free all the people in South Africa
Make life worthwhile, give a reason to smile

Slavery is brutal, it steals your identity
Wherever it?s living, suffer humanity
What led you to believe you can treat people so?
You know it isn't right, give up the fight, let them go

You gotta free all the people in South Africa
Make life worth living in Soweto
Gotta free all the people in South Africa
Make life worthwhile, give a reason to smile

It?s not right, this hate for life you're teaching
No more fight, we're all in this together
You've lost sight, you'll never find what your soul is seeking
Until you abolish Apartheid

Can free, free, South Africa
Make life worth living, Soweto
Gotta free all the people, South Africa
Make life worthwhile, give a reason to smile
