|
there she stands in the distance |
|
holding her fire to the sky |
|
she won't be denied, her freedom |
|
the face of love, symbol of grace |
|
mother to the whole human race |
|
cross the ocean for her freedom |
|
we are her children |
|
born with the right |
|
no man can undo this truth |
|
we are the masses |
|
come from afar |
|
poor but not powerless |
|
i see my reflection in your eyes |
|
yellow and red, black and white |
|
the tie that binds beyond our colors |
|
jesus' blood flows through my veins |
|
the dreamers' dream will remain |
|
for the freedom fighters' mission |
|
brothers paid with their lives |
|
for the rights that should have been free |
|
a sacrifice for liberty |
|
hear my sister singing her song |
|
she inspires the fire in me |
|
the voice of hope and liberty |
|
we've come a long way |
|
though the waters tossed and turned us |
|
we've come to find out |
|
the answer to the question |
|
where do we belong? |
