My great-grandfather marched from Rhondda to London
Rallied for pride and a stake in the British state
And he marched through batons and blood at the Battle of Hunger
Carried a banner of faith in a better day
Carried us from cradle to grave
[00:43.14]My grandad stoked the fires, the furnace was golden [00:46.84]
[00:49.46]Sun rose on the new council estate [00:53.16]
My gran retrained as a nurse when the children were older
My mother drew her disability pay
Nobody has ever been self made
Loving arms gave us life
Stripped to their bone
Guiding star shine a light
Lead us back home
I can see you're tired of fighting this war
But these are battles that we've won before
[01:50.52]Tonight I know for sure [01:53.08]
[01:53.56]Before they break our will [01:56.08]
We can break their walls
Loving arms gave us life
Picked to their bone
Guiding star shine a light
Lead us back home
