This track is our tribute to the heroic struggle of the people of South Africa against Apartheid, and a call to all, to unite against injustice!

When you’re hearing that big brass sound THEN GET UP
Feel the beat. Get your feet off the ground AND GET UP
Lift your ass punch your fist to the sky AND GET UP
Let the music be your answer why AND GET UP
When your government gets you down
When you’re sick of all those racist clowns
Just when you think you’re gonna drown
The best thing you can do when you want to lose your frown
Is to...
TOYI TOYI raise your fist in the air
TOYI TOYI for a world that is fair
TOYI TOYI raise your fist to the sky
TOYI TOYI it’s the best kind of high
When you’re hearing that big brass sound THEN GET UP
Feel the beat. Get your feet off the ground AND GET UP
Lift your ass punch your fist to the sky AND GET UP
Let the music be your answer why AND GET UP
You think your role models are rotten to the core
One law for the rich and another for the poor
They want to send you off to fight another war
You get so filled with rage that you can’t take it anymore
You got to....
TOYI TOYI break this apathy
TOYI TOYI for solidarity
TOYI TOYI it makes you feel free
TOYI TOYI it’s the best psychology
TOYI TOYI let everybody see ya
TOYI TOYI it’s better than a beer
TOYI TOYI it helps you lose you fear
TOYI TOYI make it loud and clear
TOYI TOYI makes you feel that you belong
TOYI TOYI when the world is going wrong
TOYI TOYI makes you feel strong
TOYI TOYI singing revolutionary songs
When you’re hearing that big brass sound THEN GET UP
Feel the beat. Get your feet off the ground AND GET UP
Lift your ass punch your fist in the sky AND GET UP
Let the music be your answer why AND GET UP
When global warming starts to impact
When the whole damn system is so full of cracks
The media are twisting all the facts
And all these selfish governments just refuse to act.
You got to...
TOYI TOYI raise your fists in the air
TOYI TOYI for a world that is fair
TOYI TOYI raise your fist to the sky
TOYI TOYI it’s the best kind of high
TOYI TOYI makes you feel that you belong
TOYI TOYI when the world is going wrong
TOYI TOYI it makes you feel strong
TOYI TOYI singing revolution songs
TOYI TOYI!
