Lyrics
We Shall Be Free
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
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 the 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,) stand straight
(Have a little faith,) walk proud
'Cause we shall be free
