We Shall Be Free

Every so often I hear this song on the radio, and it seems to be a "staple" song for Garth Brooks to play in his concerts, like the "Live in LA" show that is on CBS tonight.
 
Every time I hear it, I think of how true the words are, and how much I wish the entire worlds would join in singing it and passing the words along, but more importantly to actually make it all happen.
 
So, enjoy and pass it on!
 
Namaste,
Myriah
 
 
 
We Shall Be Free
Written by: - Stephanie Davis - Garth Brooks

This ain't comin' from no prophet
Just an ordinary man
When I close my eyes I see
The way this world shall be
When we all walk hand in hand

When the last child cries for a crust of bread
When the last man dies for just words that he said
When there's shelter over the poorest head
We shall be free

When the last thing we notice is the color of skin
And the first thing we look for is the beauty within
When the skies and the oceans are clean again
Then we shall be free

We shall be free
We shall be free
Stand straight, walk proud
'Cause we shall be free
When we're free to love anyone we choose
When this world's big enough for all different views
When we all can worship from our own kind of pew
Then we shall be free
We shall be free

We shall be free
Have a little faith
Hold out
'Cause we shall be free

And when money talks for the very last time
And nobody walks a step behind
When there's only one race and that's mankind
Then we shall be free

We shall be free
We shall be free
Stand straight, walk proud, have a little faith, hold out
We shall be free

We shall be free
We shall be free
Stand straight, have a little faith

We shall be free
