We Will Overcome
We walk alone
'Til the end of night
It's suicide
But we will overcome
Another life
Swinging in the breeze
These southern trees
And the strangest fruit
Follow the path, the straight and narrow (hand and hand)
Our roads are paved with broken arrows
We will overcome
We will overcome
Our fathers plant arms in foreign soil
Our brothers die
And no one knows
Where it ends (it ends between the crosshairs)
Our lives, weave a thousand deaths around us
Follow the path, the straight and narrow (hand and hand)
Our roads are paved with broken arrows
We will overcome
We will overcome
Follow the path, the straight and narrow (hand and hand)
Our roads are paved with broken arrows
We will overcome
We will overcome
We will overcome
If no one sleeps tonight
We will overcome
We will overcome
If no one sleeps tonight
(We've been waiting)
We've been waiting for years
We've been waiting too long
(To see the Promised land)
To see the Promised land
We can't wait no more
We will stand and make the Promised land
We will, we will overcome
Overcome
'Til the end of night
It's suicide
But we will overcome
Another life
Swinging in the breeze
These southern trees
And the strangest fruit
Follow the path, the straight and narrow (hand and hand)
Our roads are paved with broken arrows
We will overcome
We will overcome
Our fathers plant arms in foreign soil
Our brothers die
And no one knows
Where it ends (it ends between the crosshairs)
Our lives, weave a thousand deaths around us
Follow the path, the straight and narrow (hand and hand)
Our roads are paved with broken arrows
We will overcome
We will overcome
Follow the path, the straight and narrow (hand and hand)
Our roads are paved with broken arrows
We will overcome
We will overcome
We will overcome
If no one sleeps tonight
We will overcome
We will overcome
If no one sleeps tonight
(We've been waiting)
We've been waiting for years
We've been waiting too long
(To see the Promised land)
To see the Promised land
We can't wait no more
We will stand and make the Promised land
We will, we will overcome
Overcome
