Glory |
| One day, when the glory comes |
| It will be ours, it will be ours |
| Oh, one day, when the war is one |
| We will be sure, we will be here sure |
| Oh, glory, glory |
| Oh, glory, glory |
| Hands to the Heavens, no man, no weapon |
| Formed against, yes glory is destined |
| Every day women and men |
| become legends |
| Sins that go against our skin |
| become blessings |
| The movement is a rhythm to us |
| Freedom is like religion to us |
| Justice is juxtaposition in us |
| Justice for all just ain't specific enough |
| One son died, his spirit is revisitin' us |
| Truant livin' livin' in us, resistance is us |
| That's why Rosa sat on the bus |
| That's why we walk through Ferguson |
| with our hands up |
| When it go down we woman and man up |
| They say, "Stay down" |
| and we stand up |
| Shots, we on the ground, the camera panned up |
| King pointed to the mountain top |
| and we ran up |
| One day, when the glory comes |
| It will be ours, it will be ours |
| Oh, one day, when the war is one |
| We will be sure, we will be here sure |
| Oh, glory, glory |
| Oh, glory, glory glory |
| Now the war is not over, victory isn't won |
| And we'll fight on to the finish, |
| then when it's all done |
| We'll cry glory, oh glory |
| We'll cry glory, oh glory |
| Selma is now for every man, woman and child |
| Even Jesus got his crown in front of a crowd |
| They marched with the torch, |
| we gon' run with it now |
| Never look back, we done gone hundreds of miles |
| From dark roads he rose, to become a hero |
| Facin' the league of justice, his power was the people |
| Enemy is lethal, a king became regal |
| Saw the face of Jim Crow under a bald eagle |
| The biggest weapon is to stay peaceful |
| We sing, our music is the cuts that we bleed through |
| Somewhere in the dream we had an epiphany |
| Now we right the wrongs in history |
| No one can win the war individually |
| It takes the wisdom of the elders and young people's energy |
| Welcome to the story we call victory |
| Comin' of the Lord, my eyes have seen the glory |
| One day, when the glory comes |
| It will be ours, it will be ours |
| Oh, one day, when the war is one |
| We will be sure, we will be here sure |
| Oh, glory, glory |
| Oh, glory, glory glory |
| When the war is done, when it's all said and done |
| We'll cry glory, oh glory |
