Lyrics

World is Waiting

The woods are deep and dark tonight
With trees as thick as bayonets
My boots are heavy on this road
Of ancient hurts and old regrets
But in the dust there is a song
That walkers sang to face their fears
I feel its rhythm in my breath
It’s like I’ve heard it years and years

The ghosts that walk this road with me
They keep cryin': “how long?
Will justice be denied the poor
And all the people who suffer wrong?
When will a generation rise
To break the chain and make us whole?"
Their voices can not be denied
They call to me down in my soul

A world is waiting
Where love counts for more than power
A world is waiting
In every moment, every hour
Where no one
speaks in words of hate
And no one has to live in fear
That world is waiting for us here

Break the chain
Break the chain

A world is waiting
Where love counts for more than power
A world is waiting
In every moment, every hour

Break the chain and make us whole
They call me down to my soul
Break the chain and make us whole
They call me down to my soul

Where no one...
Where no one...

Where no one
speaks in words of hate
And no one has to live in fear
That world is waiting for us here

Break the chain
Break the chain
