It was 25 years, they take that man away
Now the freedom moves in closer every day
Wipe the tears down from your saddened eyes
They say Mandela's free, so step outside
Oh, oh, oh, oh, Mandela Day
Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, Mandela's free
It was 25 years ago this very day
Held behind four walls, all through night and day
Still the children know the story of that man
And we know what's going on right through your land
25 years ago
Na, na, na-na, Mandela Day
Oh, oh, oh, Mandela's free
If the tears are flowing, wipe them from your face
I can feel his heartbeat moving deep inside
It was 25 years, they took that man away
And now the world come down say, "Nelson Mandela's free"
ย
Oh, oh, oh, oh, Mandela's free
ย
The rising sun sets Mandela on his way
It's been 25 years around this very day
From the one outside to the ones inside, we say:
"Oh, oh, oh, oh, Mandela's free
Oh, oh, oh, set Mandela free"
Na, na, na, na, Mandela Day
Na, na, na, na, Mandela's free
ย
25 years ago
What's going on?
And we know what's going on
Because we know what's going on
