I been walkin' with my face turned to the sun Weight on my shoulders, bullet inmygun Oh, I goteyes in the back of myhead just in case I have to run I do what I can when I can while I can for my people While the clouds roll back and the stars fill the night
That's when I'm gonna stand up Take my people with me Together we are going to a brand new home Far across the river Can you hear freedom calling? Calling me to answer Gonna keep on keepin' on I can feel it in my bones
Early in the mornin' before the sun begins to shine Gonna start movin' towards that separating line I'm wading through muddy waters, you know I got a made-up mind And I don't mind if I lose any blood on the way to salvation And I'll fight with the strength that I got until I die
So I'm gonna stand up Take my people with me Together we are going to a brand new home Far across the river Can you hear freedom calling? Calling me to answer Gonna keep on keepin' on
And I know what's around the bend Might be hard to face'cause I'm alone And I just might fail, but Lord knows I tried Sure as stars fill up the sky
Stand up Take my people with me Together we are going to a brand new home Far across the river Can you hear freedom calling? Calling me to answer Gonna keep on keepin' on
I'm gonna stand up Take my people with me Together we are going to a brand new home Far across the river Do you hear freedom calling? Calling me to answer Gonna keep on keepin' on
I'm gonna stand up Take my people with me Together we are going to a brand new home Far across the river I hear freedom calling? Calling me to answer Gonna keep on keepin' on I can feel it in my bones
I go to prepare a place for you
