I've had just enough time to... bang a drum for my country.
Taken in a shopping complex in KL where the audience are mesmerized by the banging of drums.
My voice
is stifled
But my
heart bleeds
It bangs
loudly
But the
air is stilled
It
carries nothing
Of how we
feel…
So I
bang on a drum!
I bang
it loud to take my shout
I bang
it soft to mourn our grief
I bang
it slow to gather our pride
I bang
it quick to hasten the pace
And the
sound carries the roof
To the
city below
And the
citizens look up
And stamp
their feet
And the
uproar rose through the land
“Equality
for all in our motherland!”

I called upon my brother
Just the other day
He said, "John I'm
gonna
Die if I don't start to live again"
I work each day and night
like clockwork
Just tryin' to make ends meet
I could kick this bad world's
ass
If I could just get on my feet
I'd bang a drum for the
dyin'
Bang a drum for the truth
Bang a drum for the innocence
Lost in
our youth
Bang a drum, bang it loudly
Or as soft as you need
Bang a
drum for you brother
And a drum for me
