[Barack Obama, spoken]
In small towns and big cities
We came together
As Democrats, Republicans and Independents
To stand up and say that we are
One nation, we are one people
And our time for change has come!
(Hey-ay-ay-ay, hey, hey) Whoa
(Hey-ay-ay-ay, hey, hey, hey-ay-ay, hey, hey)
[R. Kelly]
I believe, I believe, I believe
Oh, I believe, I believe, I believe
Oh, I believe, I believe, I believe
Oh, I believe, I believe, I believe
Oh, I
When the mountain seems too high
And you don't have the courage nor the strength to climb
And the road you're on won't end, uh
But still you run, though you cannot see the finish line
And dark clouds are over you
Your sky's no longer blue
But you marched on straight ahead
And somehow you made it through
Got to the mountain
They left a path for me
Your victory made history and now
I believe, I believe, I believe
Oh, I believe, I believe, I believe
Oh, I believe, I believe, I believe
Oh, I believe, I believe, I believe
Oh, I
When it felt like you were weak
And couldn't fight no more
On the ropes, and it seemed
Like you was gonna run out of breath
When the world was on your shoulder
And the walls were in your way
You leaped and made it over
Through it all, you kept the faith
With hope, you set us free
You showed us how to dream
And now we can lift our voices
And forever sing
Now's the time to look ahead
And thank our heroes of the past
And celebrate this victory
Let's raise the flag
'Cause I believe, I believe, I believe
Oh, I believe, I believe, I believe
Oh, I believe, I believe, I believe
Oh, I believe, I believe, I believe
Oh, I
And when they tried to keep you down
You kept up your head
Never losing sight
You believed in what was right
You endured to the end
Walked through the strongest wind
The storm's over and a new day begins
And when our hope was dying
You brought us healing
And now I got something
To tell my children
I believe (I believe, I believe, I believe)
Oh, I believe (I believe, I believe, I believe)
Oh, I believe, yeah (I believe, I believe, I believe)
Oh, oh, I believe, I believe, I believe (I believe, I believe, I believe)
Yeah
I believe (I believe, I believe, I believe, oh, I believe)
Oh (I believe, I believe, I believe, oh, I believe)
Oh, I believe (I believe, I believe, I believe)
Yeah, I believe (I believe, I believe, I believe)
That a change is gonna come (I believe, I believe, I believe)
Yes it will, yes it will (I believe, I believe, I believe)
See, I believe in the future (I believe, I believe, I believe)
That a change is coming to America, yeah (I believe, I believe, I believe)
So stand up, stand up, stand up (I believe, I believe, I believe)
Stand up, stand up, stand up (I believe)
Lift every voice and sing (I believe, I believe)
Hey! (I believe, I believe, Oh, I believe)
That the soldiers are coming home, yeah (I believe, I believe, I believe, oh, I believe)
That it won't be long, yeah (I believe, I believe, Oh, I believe)
That a change is gonna come (I believe, I believe, I believe)
Say it (Oh, I believe, believe, believe)
I believe (Believe, believe, believe), ah-ha-hey-hey
Oh, I believe, yes
