Vows have been broken
The truth has been spoken
At last I can see the light
My people have wandered
The land has been plundered
Is this the end in sight?
I've cursed and I've cried
And I'm twisted inside
And I can't keep my anguish at bay
*(But) I'm not ready to go
I'm not ready to go
I'm not ready
Ready to go
With the good book in hand
the European man
came preaching the word of the Lord
So gentle and kind
With love on his mind
(He) said "If you live by you'll die by the sword"
Some chose to believe,
some chose to fight
Some vanished in the dead of the night
*(But) I'm not ready to go
I'm not ready to go
I'm not ready
I'm not ready to go
I'm not ready to go
I'm not ready
Ready to go
(Well) I'm young and I'm strong
Ready to go
I'm not ready
