Declare Independence Lyrics

declare independence
don't let them do that to you
declare independence
don't let them do that to you

- justice-

declare independence
don't let them do that to you
declare independence
don't let them do that to you

- justice -

start your own currency
make your own stamp
protect your language

- justice -

declare independence
don't let them do that to you
declare independence
don't let them do that to you

make your own flag
make your own flag
make your own flag
make your own flag

raise your flag <higher higher>
raise your flag <higher higher>
raise your flag <higher higher>
raise your flag <higher higher>
raise your flag <higher higher>
raise your flag <higher higher>

declare independence
don't let them do that to you
declare independence
don't let them do that to you

damn colonists
ignore their patronizing
tear off their blindfold
open their eyes

declare independence
don't let them do that to you
declare independence
don't let them do that to you

with a flag and a trumpet
go to the top
of your highest mountain

and raise your flag <higher higher>
raise your flag <higher higher>
raise your flag <higher higher>
raise your flag <higher higher>
raise your flag <higher higher>
raise your flag <higher higher>

declare independence
don't let them do that to you
declare independence
don't let them do that to you

raise the flag

Cover art for Declare Independence lyrics by Björk

no no no. this is a dedication to the Faroe Islands and Greenland. she's even said it herself.

Yes, sorelips is correct. This song is basically dedicated to Greenland and the Farore Islands as sort of an inspirational tune to individualize themselves from the Danish.

But yes...this song is amazing. Very Pluto.

The thing is that she gave several explanations to the journalists. First I thought it was for Groenland and Faroe Islands but in an interview (on France Inter, french cultural radio) she also said that this song was first for a friend who had problems with her boyfriend... So I think that both are right....

I think the lyrics are pretty straight-forward so, I only have to add that: THIS SONG FUCKING ROCKS!

Cover art for Declare Independence lyrics by Björk

it is about you have to stand up for yourself and come independent and strong, don't let people run you over and love who you are, hence raising your flag, that is your identity. straightforward and great
