We Will Overcome

We walk alone 'Til the end of night It's suicide But we will overcome Another life Swinging in the breeze These southern trees And the strangest fruit Follow the path, the straight and narrow (hand and hand) Our roads are paved with broken arrows We will overcome We will overcome Our fathers plant arms in foreign soil Our brothers die And no one knows Where it ends (it ends between the crosshairs) Our lives, weave a thousand deaths around us Follow the path, the straight and narrow (hand and hand) Our roads are paved with broken arrows We will overcome We will overcome Follow the path, the straight and narrow (hand and hand) Our roads are paved with broken arrows We will overcome We will overcome We will overcome If no one sleeps tonight We will overcome We will overcome If no one sleeps tonight (We've been waiting) We've been waiting for years We've been waiting too long (To see the Promised land) To see the Promised land We can't wait no more We will stand and make the Promised land We will, we will overcome Overcome
