Lyrics: Pamela Reynell
Music: Pamela Reynell
Soul of a nation
Watch and be wary
Lest we fall asleep at the wheel
Only to discover
Too late when we are awake
That we have been driven
For that moment we lost control
And damaged the soul of our nation
We lost our way
A cry to defend and protect
Our fragile peace
I hear
When I meditate
Crying out to Musisi to shake us awake
Begging Muwanga to keep us in line
Merciless defenders
They'll take no prisoners
All will be guilty, guilty
Watch and be wary
Lest we fall asleep at the wheel
Only to discover
Too late when we are awake
That we have been driven
For that moment we lost control
And damaged the soul of our nation
We lost our way
If you break the rules to the game
There'll be no mercy
And the rain will fall till its dry
Nobody will hear you cry
Listen to the wisdom of your culture
Don't waste another moment
I'm begging you
Watch and be wary
Lest we fall asleep at the wheel
Only to discover
Too late when we are awake
That we have been driven
For that moment we lost control
And damaged the soul of our nation
We lost our way
