This ain't comin' from no prophet |
|
Just an ordinary man |
|
When I close my eyes I see |
|
The way this world shall be |
|
When we all walk hand in hand |
|
When the last child cries for a crust of bread |
|
When the last man dies for just words that he said |
|
When there's shelter over the poorest head |
|
We shall be free |
|
When the last thing we notice is the color of skin |
|
And the first thing we look for is the beauty within |
|
When the skies and the oceans are clean again |
|
Then we shall be free |
|
We shall be free |
|
We shall be free |
|
Stand straight, walk proud |
|
'Cause we shall be free |
|
When we're free to love anyone we choose |
|
When this world's big enough for all different views |
|
When we all can worship from our own kind of pew |
|
Then we shall be free |
|
We shall be free |
|
We shall be free |
|
Have a little faith |
|
Hold out |
|
'Cause we shall be free |
|
And when money talks for the very last time |
|
And nobody walks a step behind |
|
When there's only one race and that's mankind |
|
Then we shall be free |
|
We shall be free |
|
We shall be free |
|
Stand straight, walk proud, have a little faith, hold out |
|
We shall be free |
|
We shall be free |
|
We shall be free |
|
Stand straight, have a little faith |
|
We shall be free |
