I have seen the
face of anguish, I have heard the voice of pain
In the mother who is marching and the son who has no name.
So I go and help my neighbour, 'cause what else can I do?
And then I vote my conscience and I hope that you do too.
I want to stand
for something, I want to ride that freedom train.
I want to share my privilege with those who feel the same.
I want to stand together outside the voting booth
And vote, in all our millions, for honour and for truth
I have seen
the heart of darkness in the sad affairs of state.
I have felt the chill of evil as it crept through freedom's gate.
So I go and help my neighbour, 'cause what else can I do?
And then I vote my conscience and I hope that you do too.
I want to stand
for something, I want to ride that freedom train.
I want to share my privilege with those who feel the same.
I want to stand together outside the voting booth
And vote, in all our millions, for honour and for truth
I have suffered
through injustice, wept the bitter tears of shame
But if I won't be counted, why who then shall I blame?
So I go and help my neighbour, 'cause what else can I do?
And then I vote my conscience and I hope that you do too
I want to stand
for something, I want to ride that freedom train.
I want to share my privilege with those who feel the same.
I want to stand together outside the voting booth
And vote, in all our millions, for honour and for truth
So I go and
help my neighbour and I hope that you do too
And then I vote my conscience 'cause nothing less will do |
