(Fred Small) It's been a long hard time
It's gonna be a long steep climb
But no one's gonna change my mind
'Bout what we gotta do
And when the road gets rough
Everybody's saying, just to give it up
All of our friends' sweet love
Gonna carry us through
We don't have the money
But we got the will
We got friends who are telling the truth
That can never be stilled
Now they're gonna threaten
Now they've killed to get their way
But this movement we are building
Will not go away
And we're gonna argue
We can't always agree
But we can't let anger blind us
To all we can be
And we need the laughter
We need the tears to wash us clean
We need sisters and brothers beside us
To follow the dream
Beware of the heroes
Beware of the stars
'Cause a victory is hollow
If it ain't really ours
We're talking 'bout changes
From the bottom to the top
Say that freedom is a constant struggle
And you can't ever stop
(as sung by Guy & Candie Carawan)
