A Shout into the Night Video (MV)

In this hallowed land down under
Where change is underway
Lies a spark untamed and fierce
That will not fade away
It's a flame that feeds on anger
On the wrongs we can't ignore
It's a fire that fuels rebellion
And a cry of something more

No chain can bind our spirits
No shackles lock our might
No wall of privilege can shield them
In their discrimination flight
They will trample with exclusion
Wound with bias so deep
But we are the strength unbroken
A promise we will keep

It's not a whisper
It's a shout into the night
A rallying cry of warriors
A symphony full of might
It's a call to all who hear it
A summons to be free
A battle cry of the unbowed
A fight for equality

They think us weak and weary
Frail and slight
But we'll show them we won't falter
In this never-ending fight
Through the darkness of sexism
Through racism's hateful sneer
With heads held high
No surrender and no fear

We will break the bonds of hatred
We'll shatter all that's wrong
No more the voiceless victims;
We are coming and we are strong
With hearts ablaze and minds on fire
Tearing down each vile trace
Of oppression that has held us
Of the shame we'll not embrace

It's not a whisper
It's a shout into the night
A rallying cry of warriors
A symphony full of might
It's a call to all who hear it
A summons to be free
A battle cry of the unbowed
A fight for equality

We will stand for all the silenced
We'll speak for those unheard
Fight for every soul oppressed
By action and by word
We will challenge every bigot
We'll fight them to the grave
Be the beacon in the darkness
The valiant and the brave

Let the world hear our roaring
Let them tremble at our song
For we are the unyielding
A fight with tine and prong
With a love that's fierce and fearless
With a rage that's pure and right
Bringing forth a new tomorrow
Overflowing with light

It's not a whisper
It's a shout into the night
A rallying cry of warriors
A symphony full of might
It's a call to all who hear it
A summons to be free
A battle cry of the unbowed
A fight for equality

So heed this cry you mighty
You keepers of the chain
Your walls are but illusions
Your power's only vain
We're the tide that's ever surging
The storm you can't subdue
We're the hope the dream the future
We're the many not the few

Our voices thunderous
A storm that will not cease
A tempest so determined
A wind of lasting peace
Stand with us or stand aside
But know we will not bow
We are the voice of humanity
And our time is now
