The Clansman Lyrics

Wake alone in the hills with the wind in your face

It feels good to be proud and be free and a race

That is part of a clan and to live on highlands

And the air that you breathe so pure and so clean



When alone on the hills

With the wind in your hair

With a longing to feel...

Just to be free



Is it right to believe in the need to be free

It's a time when you die and without asking why

Can't you see what they do they are grinding us down

They are taking our land that belongs to the clans



Not alone with a dream

Just want to be free

With a need to belong

I am a clansman... Freedom



It's a time wrought with fear

it's a land wrought with change



Ancestors could hear

What is happening now

They would turn in their graves

they would all be ashamed

That the land of the free

has been written in chains

And I know what I want



When the timing is right

Then I'll take what is mine

I am the clansman



And I swear to defend

And we'll fight to the end

And I swear that I'll never be taken alive

And I know that we'll stand

and we'll fight for our land

And I swear that my bairns

Will be born free



And I know what I want

When the timing is right

Then I'll take what I want

I am the clansman... freedom



And I know what I want

When the timing is right

Then I'll take what is mine

I am the clansman



No, no we can't let them take anymore

No we can't let them take anymore

We've the land of the free

Freedom



Is it right to believe in the need to be free

It's a time when you die and without asking why

Can't you see what they do they are grinding us down

They are taking our land that belongs to the clans



Not alone with a dream

Just want to be free

With a need to belong

I am a clansman
