Lyrics
We hold these truths to be self-evident That all men are are created equal That they are endowed by their Creator With certain unalienable rights That among these are life Liberty, and the pursuit of happiness That to secure these rights Governments are instituted among men Deriving their just powers From the consent of the governed That whenever any Form of government becomes Destructive of these ends It is the right of the people To alter or to abolish it And to institute new government Laying its foundation on such Principles and organizing its Powers in such form as to Them shall seem most likely to Effect their safety and happiness Prudence, indeed will dictate that Governments, long established Should not be changed for light And transient causes And accordingly, all experience has shown That mankind are More disposed to suffer While evils are sufferable Than to right themselves by Abolishing the forms to which They are accustomed But when a long train Of abuses and usurpations Pursuing invariably the same object Evinces a design to reduce them Under absolute despotism It is their right It is their duty To throw off such government And to provide new guards For their future security For their future security For their future security For their future security ♪ I was born by the river in a little tent And, oh just like a river, I've been running ever since It's been a long, a long time coming But I know a change has got to come, oh yes, it will It's been too hard living, but I'm afraid to die I don't know what's up there beyond the sky It's been a long, a long time coming But I know a change has got to come, oh yes, it will Then I go to my brother And I say, "Brother, help me please" But he, you know, he just keep on, keep on knockin' me to my knees, but oh There've been times that I thought I couldn't last for long But now I think I'm able to carry on It's been a long, a long time coming But I know a change has got to come, a change has got to come, yeah ♪ All the world over, so easy to see People everywhere just wanna be free Listen, please listen, that's the way it should be Peace in the valley, people got to be free All the world over, so easy to see People everywhere just wanna be free I can't understand it, so simple to me People everywhere just got to be free Shout it from the mountain on out to the sea No two ways about it, people have to be free Ask me my opinion, my opinion will be Natural situation for a man to be free Oh, what a feeling's just come over me Love can move a mountain, make a blind man see Everybody's dancing, come on, let's go see Peace in the valley now, we all can be free Wanna be free Got to be free Wanna be free Got to be free Got to be free Got to be free Got to be free Got to be free Got to be free Got to be free
