Madagascar

I won't be told anymore
That I've been brought down in this storm
And left so far out from the shore
That I can't find my way, find my way, anymore
No I won't be told anymore
That I've been brought down in this storm
And left so far out from the shore
That I can't find my way, find my way, anymore
Oh no, I...
I...
Forgive them that tear down my soul
Bless them that they might grow old
And free them so that they may know
That it's never too late
For the many times, what seemed like a memory
I've searched and found the ways you used to lure me in
I found the way, oh, why it had to be
Mired in denial and so afraid
If we ever find it's true
That we have the strength to choose
I'm free of all the chains
We held together
(Quotes)
I'm gonna tell you a story
Stand up for righteousness!
What?
Stand up for justice!
What?
Stand up for truth!
How can a person grow up with all this around them?
You got to call on that something
Where does it come from?
That can make a way out of no way
All this hatred?
What we've got here is..
Fear!
That power that can make a way out of now no way
Failure to communicate
I tell ya I seen the lightning...I've heard the thunder roll!
Everybody's acting like we can do anything and it don't matter what we do. Maybe we gotta be extra careful because maybe it matters more than
we even know..
Sometimes...
Hatred isn't somethin' you're born with
I feel discouraged
It gets taught
Sometimes I feel discouraged
I felt this fear
He promised never to leave me, never to leave me alone, no never alone, no never alone!
Let's get something straight, alright?
Promised never to leave me!
This whole thing was fucked up
Never to leave me alone!
All men betray. All lose heart!
I don't want to lose heart!...I want to believe
Black men and white men
Together at the table of brotherhood!
I have a dream
Free at last! Free at last! Thank God almighty!! WE ARE FREE AT LAST!!
I won't be told anymore
That I've been brought down in this storm
And left so far out from the shore
That I can't find my way, find my way, anymore
No I won't be told anymore (If we ever find its true)
That I've been brought down in this storm (That we have the strength to choose)
And left so far out from the shore (I'm free of all the chains)
That I can't find my way, find my way, anymore (We held together)
