I'm feeling powerless 
 I'm feeling hopeless 
 I see the world beneath us open to the darkness 
 I see it everywhere 
 There's no progress 
 It's like I'm slowly giving into all the madness 
    I stand here imperfect right before you 
 Been searching so long for a way to get through 
 Swallowed the universe abandoned my youth 
 I still can't forsake what I feel is true 
 I was made out of dust by a voice in the wind 
 To conquer my fears and rise like king 
 I will always evolve and never give in 
 I will follow my dreams cause I know I will win   
 And if you don't take a stand 
 You won't understand   
 We will overcome 
 We will overcome 
 It's written in the wind 
 Set the wheels in motion and rise again 
 Higher and higher and higher 
 Higher and higher 
 We will overcome 
 My friend   
 And I will not justify what I did 
 Through the pain sweat and tears I have learned to forgive 
 So live out your life cause it is a gift 
 And rise up above; take the whole world with you 
 I stand here naked this is my truth 
 Hold on to your innocence and beauty of youth 
 And don't ever forget the power lies within 
 Being born ain't a crime you can be what you want to   
 And if you don't take a stand 
 You won't understand   
 We will overcome 
 We will overcome 
 It's written in the wind 
 Set the wheels in motion and rise again 
 Higher and higher and higher 
 Higher and higher 
 We will overcome 
 My friend   
 I'm feeling powerless 
 I'm feeling hopeless 
 I see the world beneath us open to the darkness 
 I see it everywhere 
 There's no progress 
 It's like I'm slowly giving into all the madness   
 We will overcome 
 We will overcome 
 It's written in the wind 
 Set the wheels in motion and rise again 
 Higher and higher and higher 
 Higher and higher 
 We will overcome 
 My friend   
 I'm feeling powerful 
 I'm feeling hopeful 
 I see the world beneath us change to something beautiful 
 I see it everywhere 
 There is progress 
 If we unite as one then everything is possible
