Forever One Road

Lyrics

[Verse 1] I woke up with dust on my boots And a line in my head Saw a kid on the corner Sharing half of his bread Old man by the river Said, "Boy, don't let it die" There's a fire in the people When they choose to stand and try [Pre-Chorus] Oh, we been beaten down But we still rise up One voice in the dark Turns the whole world tough [Chorus] Freedom in the world forever one Freedom in the world forever one Hands in the air, let the old chains run Freedom in the world forever one (Forever one) [Verse 2] From the farms to the harbors From the east to the west Every scar tells a story Of who loved hard and fought best Mothers sewing the future With a needle and a song If we carry each other We can’t be held for long [Pre-Chorus] Oh, we been knocked around But the spark lives on When you call my name I know I’m not alone [Chorus] Freedom in the world forever one Freedom in the world forever one Hands in the air, let the old chains run Freedom in the world forever one (Forever one) [Bridge] Let the kids have a clean sky Let the hungry eat first Let the wounded find a place here Where the broken heart can thirst And when the night comes heavy We won’t kneel, we won’t hide We’ll be singing on the front steps With the whole world by our side [Chorus] Freedom in the world forever one Freedom in the world forever one Hands in the air, let the old chains run Freedom in the world forever one (Forever one)
