Chorus:
It's been a long hard time
It's gonna be a long steep climb
But no one's gonna change our minds
'bout what we gotta do
And when the road gets rough
Everybody's saying, "just give it up"
All of our friends' sweet love
Gonna carry us through.
We don't have the money
But we got the will
We got voices talking the truth
That can never be stilled
But they're gonna threaten
You know they have killed to get their way
But this movement we are building
Will not go away.
Chorus
Beware of the heroes
Beware of the stars
'cause a victory is hollow
If it ain't really ours
We're talking 'bout changes
Not just changing the faces at the top
They say that freedom is a constant struggle
And you can't ever stop (don't stop).
Chorus
Now we're gonna argue
We won't always agree
But we can't let anger blind us
To all we can be
Cause we need the laughter
And we need the tears to wash us clean
We need sisters and brothers beside us
To follow the dream
Chorus
