lyrics

I have been in deepest sorrow.
And I have been in jubilation.
And I have been in the city way too long.

And it’s the right of everyone to choose their own way.
And it’s the right of everyone to test their destiny.
And it’s the right of everyone to seek the freedom they so long for.

If they’ll pay the price.

I have seen a hundred rivers.
And I have seen a thousand sunsets.
And I have seen a million miles of empty road.

And it’s the past for good or ill that leads us forward.
And it’s the past with all the pain that makes us human.
And it’s the past of fear and love that’s recreated every dawn.

But we’ll pay the price.

I have called to every neighbor.
And I have called a foe my friend.
And I have called for a new call to arms.

And it’s the day before the light to make a difference.
And it’s the day without the rain to see the sunshine.
And it’s the day in my own life to tip the weighted scales of justice.

And I’ll pay the price.
