9. Cry For Freedom (James the VI) (3:17)
My king won another crown - for Scotland's pride
That is what we thought but we were not right
Now he rules in London - a faceless king
Sold his ancient kingdom to the enemy
Five laws
You gave at Perth
Betray the rights
We gained by birth
[Chorus:]
Cry,cry,cry,cry for freedom
The heritage of centuries - you did betray
The blood of Bruce flowing in your vains
How could you give away - what Braveheart died for
Freedom may be lost now and forever more
You gain a crown
We pay the price
You think you rule
But we will rise
That is what we thought but we were not right
Now he rules in London - a faceless king
Sold his ancient kingdom to the enemy
Five laws
You gave at Perth
Betray the rights
We gained by birth
[Chorus:]
Cry,cry,cry,cry for freedom
The heritage of centuries - you did betray
The blood of Bruce flowing in your vains
How could you give away - what Braveheart died for
Freedom may be lost now and forever more
You gain a crown
We pay the price
You think you rule
But we will rise
