IT'S A PEACEFUL THING TO KNOW THAT FREEDOM AS A RULE BELONGS TO ME THERE'S SOMETHING VERY WRONG WHEN THE COLOR OF A MAN IS ALL YOU SEE AFTER ALL THIS TIME, HOW CAN A SINGLE VOICE EXPLAIN ANY REASON FOR THE PAIN WE ALL HAVE SEEN IT'S NOT A DREAM
ONE MAN STOOD TALL AND FACED THE DEVIL WITH HIS BACK TO THE WALL AND TOOK ONE STEP CLOSER TO HEAVEN ABOVE
SO HE TOOL A STAND AND WALKED WHERE NO ONE ELSE WOULD DARE TO EVEN TRY IT WAS THE ONLY WAY IF NOT FOR BRAVERY, THE SOUL WOULD SURELY DIE AND RIGHT BEFORE MY EYES HE GAVE HIS LIFE UNSELFISHLY SO THAT ALL THE FATHER'S CHILDREN COULD BE FREE LIKE YOU AND ME
chorus
BEFORE HIS WORK IS DONE WE'VE GOT TO PUT AN END TO THIS GAME OF CHOOSING SIDES I WANT US TO BE ONE AND I WON'T LET IT GO 'TILL IT'S OVER I'M HERE WAITING
