Tell him again he don't care much to hear
Mtsheleni madoda akafuni ukulalele
I was talking to him again
But the never understands me
He thinks it is very strange
That I should question what he hands me
He can't imagine I have a feeling for what I can be
Hey brother! Listen to the river whenever you want to remember the sea
Hey brother! Listen to the feeling in your heart it also flows through me
Tell him again - he don't care much to hear
Tell him again - I need my liberty
Tell him again - freedom's in the air
Tell him again - take these chains off me
Tell him again - he don't care much to hear
Tell him again - he is just like me
Tell him again - freedom's in the air
Tell him again - I was born to be free
We have all been sentenced to this life
Everyone is a defendent
We are all prisoners of time
We are destined to spend it
But we must be free to choose the way we serve the sentence
Tell him again - he don't care much to hear
Tell him again - I need my liberty
Tell him again - freedom's in the air
Tell him again - take these chains off me
Tell him again - he don't care much to hear
Tell him again - he is just like me
Tell him again - freedom's in the air
Tell him again - I was born to be free
If there comes a time
I will take this life
And lay it down
For my liberty
Oh it's such a shame
Such a tragedy
But it's all I have
To make you see
All the air I breathe
All the things I have
They don't mean that much
If I can't be free
Tell him again - he don't care much to hear
Tell him again - I need my liberty
Tell him again - freedom's in the air
Tell him again - take these chains off me
Tell him again - he don't care much to hear
Tell him again - he is just like me
Tell him again - freedom's in the air
Tell him again - I was born to be free
So long I've been waiting
All my heart is breaking
Freedom long forsaken
Together we can make it
