I Believe Lyrics

I Believe

One belief that gave rise to a nation



Etched in our history



A future carved in stone







Foundation of what was



Yet to come to light



A people reduced to slaves



Never given the right to say







I believe



I believe you can never take that away



I believe I cannot lie blind



To fight for a right to be



I will give my life



Believe







White dove amongst a murder of crows



A martyr in disguise wearing a robe of gold







Outstretched arm hides



Cracked smile lies



Pleasant words try



But no one can deny that







I believe



I believe you can never take that away



I believe I cannot lie blind



To fight for a right to be



I will give my life



Believe







Beneath the star, the battle lines are drawn tonight



A child runs for cove, holds his mother tight



To take a life comes too easily



How can one live when you must die for your beliefs







Can't control myself



I see something else



Gotta control myself



Take me away







Gotta speak my mind



Too many walking blind



Gonna have to speak my mind



I believe
