Eurovision 2021 Netherlands:
Jeangu Macrooy - "Birth Of A New Age"
Birth Of A New Age
Skin as rich as the starlit night
Your rhythm is rebellion, your rhythm is rebellion
Deep currents running in the rivers of your eyes
Your rhythm is rebellion, your rhythm is rebellion
They spat on your crown and they poisoned your ground
Your rhythm is rebellion, your rhythm is rebellion
They burned your heroes at the stake
But your voice will echo all their names
This ain't the end, no
It's the birth of a new age
Yu no man broko mi
Yu no man broko mi
Yu no man broko, broko mi
Yu no man broko mi
Yu no man broko mi
Yu no man broko, broko mi
Soul blazin' like a hurricane
Your rhythm is rebellion, your rhythm is rebellion
Spirit roaring wild like untamed flames
Your rhythm is rebellion, your rhythm is rebellion
They buried your guts, they imprisoned your thoughts
Your rhythm is rebellion, your rhythm is rebellion
They tried to drain you off your faith
But you are the rage that melts the chains
This ain't the end, no
It's the birth of a new age
We are the fruit born in the legacy
Of every forgotten revolutionary
Born in resillience, proud like a lion
We are the birth of a new age
Yu no man broko mi
Yu no man broko mi
Yu no man broko, broko mi
Mi na afu sensi
Yu no man broko mi
Yu no man broko mi
Yu no man broko, broko mi
Mi na afu sensi
Yu no man broko mi
Yu no man broko mi
Yu no man broko, broko mi
Mi na afu sensi
Yu no man broko mi
Yu no man broko mi
Yu no man broko, broko mi
Mi na afu sensi

Your rhythm is rebellion, your rhythm is rebellion

But your voice will echo all their names
This ain't the end, no
It's the birth of a new age
You can't break me
You can't break me
You can't break, break me
You can't break me
You can't break me
You can't break, break me
Soul blazin' like a hurricane
Your rhythm is rebellion, your rhythm is rebellion
Spirit roaring wild like untamed flames
Your rhythm is rebellion, your rhythm is rebellion

You can't break me
You can't break, break me
I'm half a cent
You can't break me
You can't break me
You can't break, break me
I'm half a cent
You can't break me
You can't break me
You can't break, break me
I'm half a cent
You can't break me
You can't break me
You can't break, break me
I'm half a cent
