|
I have sold myself through and through |
|
I have walked in the darkness too |
|
I've felt a red sun, the living proof |
|
Washed my hands in the honest truth |
|
I have carried this weight time after time |
|
I have bettered the dumb and the blind |
|
I've seen dignity fail and colors run |
|
Seen justice denied by the voice of a gun |
|
And we walk, yes we walk |
|
And we walk with the power every day |
|
Never letting the light slip away |
|
Reaching out, reaching in |
|
Touching truth and touching skin |
|
Never letting the light slip away |
|
And we walk with the power every day |
|
If our faith is a fire then burn baby burn |
|
We've had fire long enough to learn |
|
Keeping me whole is a healing light |
|
Kept alive by the flames of night |
|
Walk tall in the power day after day |
|
Never, never, never lose sight of the way |
|
See the dawn come and the dusk end |
|
See the power rise from an open hand |
