Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Can you tell me, dear Grandfather, of your childhood so far away?
You can see the death of laughter in his teared eyes disarray
Then he pours his heart thereafter of soldiers taking the men away
Leaving women and their children in the desert you will pay
[Chorus]
We are the children of all the survivors justice will shine on
We are the demons of all the deniers justice will shine on
[Verse 2]
Can you tell me, dear Grandmother, of your childhood from hunger and pain
Of the orphans you called brothers in her teared eyes disarray?
"Can you tell me, my grandson," she said, "Why this country won't recognize that day?"
"Of the genocide of your fathers"
Believe me, Grandma, they will pay
[Chorus]
We are the children of all the survivors justice will shine on
We are the demons of all the deniers justice will shine on
We are the children of all the survivors justice will shine on
We are the demons of all the deniers justice will shine on
[Bridge]
We'll never let you forget the past of the children that cannot grow
You will pay with a million and a half regrets
Of the atrocities that you sow
[Chorus]
We are the children of all the survivors (Their only crime was life)
Justice will shine on (Their only guilt was being)
We are the demons of all the deniers (During a time of strife)
Justice will shine on (Of massacre and bleeding)
We are the children of all the survivors (Their only crime was life)
Justice will shine on (Their only guilt was being)
We are the demons of all the deniers (During a time of strife)
Justice will shine on (Of massacre and bleeding)
But we must never stop to strive
For our rights, we must stop bleeding
We are the children of all the survivors (We'll never let you forget the past)
Justice will shine on (Of the children that cannot grow)
We are the demons of all the deniers (We'll never let you forget the past)
Justice will shine on (Of the genocide that you sow)
[Outro]
Can you tell me, dear Grandfather, of your childhood so far away?
