Solidarity Lyrics
Uh!
Here tonight I clock a thousand heads
Here to unite, through common dreads
Now who's with me? (Oh!)
Now who's with me? (Oh!)
Something drips inside that's building for a thousand years
Now we can no longer hide the immediacy of these fears
Our names will not be written on water
And we don't need an honour (No way!)
One day I know the dam will collapse
And we will be the current!
Yes... what have you got for me?
Oooh!
Oooh!
And now the flood gates will open
Arrghhh!
You cannot hold back the tide!
You cannot hold back the tide!
We will sing as one in solidarity, we will swim together
No longer treading water, we're flowing with the tide
And you can taste the light, don't waste the light
We will sing as one in solidarity, we will sing together
Now
And still we will be here, standing like statues
Yeah! The time is now, friends and brothers
We will sing as one in solidarity, we will sing together (We're not hiding)
(And still we will be here, standing like statues)
Here to unite, through common dreads
Now who's with me? (Oh!)
Now who's with me? (Oh!)
Now we can no longer hide the immediacy of these fears
Our names will not be written on water
And we don't need an honour (No way!)
One day I know the dam will collapse
And we will be the current!
Oooh!
Oooh!
Arrghhh!
You cannot hold back the tide!
You cannot hold back the tide!
No longer treading water, we're flowing with the tide
And you can taste the light, don't waste the light
We will sing as one in solidarity, we will sing together
Now
Yeah! The time is now, friends and brothers
(And still we will be here, standing like statues)

This is really, really wrong, I'm not sure on some of the lyrics for this either but I know for sure these a wrong, why not just wait for the album to come out? While I don't really want to add to the speculation as to what the lyrics are... Stuff [in these brackets] is stuff I'm not sure on
Here tonight I clock a thousand heads Here to unite, through common dreads Now who's with me? (Ho!) Now who's with me? (Ho!)
Something [sits inside?], that's been [growing?] for a thousand years Now we can no longer hide the immediacy of these fears Our names will not be written on water And we don't need an [arm?] (No way!) One day I know, the dam will collapse And we will beat the current!
Yes... what have you got for me? Oooh!
And now the flood gates will open Arrghhh! You cannot hold back the tide! You cannot hold back the tide!
We will [sing as one?] solidarity! We will stand together No longer treading water, we're flowing with the tide And you can taste the night, don't waste the night!
And still we will be here, (we're not hiding) standing like statues
Solidarity, solidarity, we will stand together (We're not hiding) (And still we will be here, standing like statues)
Don't know how you got "we will sleep together" from that. Anyways there's my take on it, it's probably not right either, doesn't really matter though we'll now the proper lyrics soon enough, Common Dreads is gonna be amazing!
Here tonight I crack a thousand heads Here to unite, through common dreads Now who's with me? (Ho!) Now who's with me? (Ho!)
Something drips inside, that's been growing for a thousand years Now we can no longer hide the immediaty of these fears Our names will not be written on water And we don't need an [arm?] (No way!) One day I know, the dam will collapse And we will beat the current!
Yes... what have you got for me? Oooh!
And now the flood gates will open WIDDDEEEEE! You cannot hold back the tide! You cannot hold back the tide!
We will sing as one in solidarity! We will stand together No longer treading water, we're flowing with the tide And you can taste the light, don't waste the light!
We will sing as one in solidarity! We will stand together
And still we will be here,standing like statues
the time is now friends and brothers
we will sing as one in solidarity,we will stand together(standing like statues)
adsmylie has got virtually all of it right.
But I think the last line is 'we will sing together' as opposed to 'stand together'
Here tonight I crack a thousand heads Here to unite, through common dreads Now who's with me? (Ho!) Now who's with me? (Ho!)

Its definatly cute and not gift
sorry wrong song :S
The start of this song is immense. A track that has to be listened to. I'd feel bad if I skipped it lol
I agree with lcfcsunil. adsmylie had it pretty much right. One thing that's wrong in his version is after the creepy voice says "and now the flood gates will open" Rou (the lead singer) clearly does not say "wide!" He is really just saying "Yahhh!" in an inhale scream. Putting a Y in front of certain vowels enunciates words, syllables, and words like "yah". So essentially Rou's using "yah" for a dramatic effect and possibly to symbolize the water released by the flood gates. Even so, I think it makes that part of the song epic.
