Songtekst

One day
When the glory comes
It will be ours
It will be ours
Oh, one day
When the war is won
We will be sure
We will be sure
Oh, glory (Glory, glory)
Oh (Glory, glory)

Hands to the Heavens, no man, no weapon
Formed against, yes, glory is destined
Everyday women and men become legends
Sins that go against our skin become blessings
The movement is a rhythm to us
Freedom is like religion to us
Justice is juxtapositionin' us
Justice for all just ain't specific enough
One son died, his spirit is revisitin' us
True and livin' livin' in us, resistance is us
That's why Rosa sat on the bus
That's why we walked through Ferguson with our hands up
When it go down, we woman and man up
They say: stay down, and we stand up
Shots, we on the ground, the camera panned up
King pointed to the mountain top and we ran up

One day
When the glory comes
It will be ours
It will be ours
Oh, one day
When the war is won
We will be sure
We will be sure
Oh, glory (Glory, glory)
Oh (Glory, glory)

Now the war is not over
Victory isn't won
But we'll fight on to the finish
And then when it's all done

We'll cry glory (Glory)
Oh, glory (Glory)
Oh (Glory, glory)
We'll cry glory (Glory)
Oh, glory (Glory)
Oh (Glory, glory)

Selma is now for every man, woman and child
Even Jesus got his crown in front of a crowd
They marched with the torch, we gon' run with it now
Never look back, we done gone hundreds of miles
From dark roads he rose to become a hero
Facin' the league of justice, his power was the people
Enemy is lethal, a king became regal
Saw the face of Jim Crow under a bald eagle
The biggest weapon is to stay peaceful
We sing, our music is the cuts that we bleed through
Somewhere in the dream we had an epiphany
Now we right the wrongs in history
No one can win the war individually
It take the wisdom of the elders and young people's energy
Welcome to the story we call victory
The coming of the Lord, my eyes have seen the glory

One day
When the glory comes
It will be ours
It will be ours
Oh, one day
When the war is won
We will be sure
We will be sure
Oh, glory (Glory, glory)
Oh (Glory, glory)
Oh, glory (Glory, glory)
Hey (Glory, glory)

When the war is won (Glory, glory)
When it's all said and done (Glory, glory)
We'll cry glory (Glory, glory)
Oh, glory (Glory, glory)
