Hope Over Fear

Are you threatened by words from an empire of money and gold?
Will you trade in your country's potential for the lies you've been sold?
Are you scared that the walls are too high to bee breeched by the bold?
Will you stand and be counted or shut up and do what you're told?
Hope over fear; don't be afraid
Tell Westminster Tories that Scotland's no longer your slave
Carpe diem, will you seize the day
Rip the chains from the unicorn show them that Scotland is brave

Did the TV man call you a Nationalist for rejecting the lies?
Are the words of a few worth a bob coz they wear shirts and ties?
When they tell you that Scotland's no great are you really surprised?
Will you stand and be counted for something that money can't buy?
Hope over fear; don't be afraid
Tell Westminster Tories that Scotland's no longer your slave
Carpe diem, will you seize the day
Rip the chains from the unicorn, show them that Scotland is brave

Are you happy that nuclear weapons are dumped on the Clyde?
Fighting wars for the wealth of the few, how many have died?
You can bury my bones but the truth of it can't be denied
Will you stand and be counted coz I'll be there stood by your side
Hope over fear; don't be afraid
Tell Westminster Tories that Scotland's no longer your slave
Carpe diem, will you seize the day
Rip the chains from the unicorn, show them that Scotland is brave

Well the media tell you that England don't want you to go
And the tax payer funded MP's tell you just tell them no, no
But in Manchester, Nottingham, Sheffield they already know
That we're fighting for them and it's only the start of the show
Hope over fear; don't be afraid
Tell Westminster Tories that Scotland's no longer your slave
Carpe diem, will you seize the day?
Rip the chains from the unicorn, show them that Scotland is brave
Rip the chains from the unicorn, show them that Scotland is brave
