I still believe


Featuring Linda Tillery & Zumbi of Zion I

I still believe that we shall overcome
This faith can give us courage to face the uncertainties of the future
It will give our tired feet new strength
As we continue our forward stride
Toward the city of freedom

We this is liberation music so get used to it
Get juiced, when I’m in the booth boost to it
Higher plain, I tane straight off the ride
Maintain, holdin steady, ready for the future shock
And we don’t stop, we keep on, head higher
In this sacred desire, aye we blaze more fire
With the tune in we boomin the humans
Revolving, planets revolving, in lumen

I believe that unarmed truth and unconditional love will have the final word in reality
This is why right temporarily defeated is stronger than evil triumphant
I have the audacity to believe that people everywhere can have 3 meals a day for their bodies
Education and culture for their minds
And dignity, equality and freedom for their spirits
Civilization and violence are anti-fetical concepts

So we keep in, step or we earth less
Rectify the trouble fore it bubble to the surface
Time to elevatin, got a jewel, find your purpose
Blessin so don’t stress about it, fresh intended verses
So disperse with the circus, we circles in surface
Right in the wave, written cursive
With the searches, I’m perched on a vine
One time for your mind, roll your purples

Non-violence is not sterile passivity but a powerful moral force
Which makes for social transformation
I refuse to accept despair as the final response to the ambiguities of history
I refuse to accept the view that mankind is so tragically bound to the starless midnight of racism and war
That the bright daybreak of peace and brotherhood can never become a reality
I refuse to accept the cynical notion
That nation after nation must spiral down a militaristic stairway into the hell of thermo-nuclear destruction
When our days become dreary with low hovering clouds
And out nights become darker than a thousand midnights
We will know that we living in the creative turmoil of a genuine civilization struggling to be born

Thank you because you correct this lyrics
