(Verse 2 – same chords as Verse 1):

So many wars, settling scores,

Bringing us promises, leaving us poor,

I heard them say, love is the way,

Love is the answer, that's what they say,

But look how they treat us, Make us believers,

We fight their battles, then they deceive us,

Try to control us, they couldn't hold us,

Cause we just move forward like Buffalo Soldiers.

But we struggling, fighting to eat,

And we wondering, when we'll be free

So we patiently wait, for that faithful day,

It's not far away, but for now we say,
