[Verse 1]
I come here for Dr. King
Who gave the people a precious thing
He found a light in the darkest hour
And the strength for speaking truth to power
[Pre-Chorus]
And in the years since they shot him down
You see changes that once were a dream
Begin to come around
[Chorus]
When the walls have begun to crumble
When the laws have begun to burn
When the winds is singing freedom
When the stone begins to turn
[Verse 2]
And I come here to praise Mandela
And to bring this message to his jailer
Your walls may hold the man inside
But they'll never ever ever hold back the tide
[Pre-Chorus]
'Cause in the years you've shut him away
A generation has grown where he stood
They're gonna see the day
I come here for Dr. King
Who gave the people a precious thing
He found a light in the darkest hour
And the strength for speaking truth to power
[Pre-Chorus]
And in the years since they shot him down
You see changes that once were a dream
Begin to come around
[Chorus]
When the walls have begun to crumble
When the laws have begun to burn
When the winds is singing freedom
When the stone begins to turn
[Verse 2]
And I come here to praise Mandela
And to bring this message to his jailer
Your walls may hold the man inside
But they'll never ever ever hold back the tide
[Pre-Chorus]
'Cause in the years you've shut him away
A generation has grown where he stood
They're gonna see the day
