One People

Come on board, we will go on a ride
'Long the timeline of history
The first stop is the Lincoln Memorial
In Washington in '63
A quarter million had gathered
To cash their check for liberty
They had to break through
Through the narrow confines kept in by inequity
It still brings tears to my eyes
When I hear the words of Dr. King
And this is how it sounds in my mind
When the bells of freedom ring
Movement of all my people
Got a call from my mother that day
She said, «Quick son, turn on the TV»
On every channel they are coverin' the story
Madiba, Madiba is free
Now Amos river of justice
Is rolling down as a mighty stream
Only hope makes you endure
The time, life will need to realize your dream
When he was asked if he felt any
Hatred after 30 years of captivity
Mandela told them, he abandoned
His anger through forgiveness, love and belief
Movement of all my people
See, these are my people
My people want freedom
Since we are one people
One people, one freedom
Movement of all my people
My people want freedom
My people want freedom
My people want freedom
One people
