I shall overcome

New day dawning, wonder what it holds for me,
Sun is shining, Don´t think that it will shine on me
I look around, nothing seems to have changed,
This dirty town, hasn´t some how rearranged
And I stand up, but I get knocked straight back down,
"Just give it up" they say, "We just don´t want you around
Not one of us, and we don´t like to share."
Mouthful of dust, but I´ll get even I swear...
I hear your voice, call my name, but in my heart, It´s still pouring rain,
And it ain´t pretty,no it ain´t pretty...
But you say "Hold on, hold on... believe me,
All the plans against you one by one, will come undone."
I shall overcome.
Through my tears, I try to see your face,
But doubt and fear come calling, and crowd my head with words of hate,
Scream out please! Don´t leave me hear alone,
Down on my knees, without you, without hope...
I hear your voice, call my name, but in my heart, It´s still pouring rain,
And it ain´t pretty,no it ain´t pretty...
But you say "Hold on, hold on... believe me,
Love is here and I won´t let you down, stand your ground.
Hold on, hold on... It´s easy,
All the plans against you one by one, will come undone."
I know I shall overcome.
Just in time you call my name, pull myself up, to fight again.
I´ll never let you down...
But you say "Hold on, hold on... believe me,
Love is here and I won´t let you down, stand your ground.
Hold on, hold on... It´s easy,
All the plans against you one by one, will come undone."
I know I shall overcome.
Sun is shining, Don´t think that it will shine on me
