How much higher can we climb? / The system that we're living in / Depends on poverty and greed /

But people don't need charity / It's justice that we need.

There's disrepair / It's surrounding you / And it's worse than it's ever been / We'll overcome / Overcome the

things they do. / We're halfway there / Cause we know the truth / But living is another thing / We will overcome

Overcome the things they do / Lift your voice and say: / A change is coming our way / step by step and day by

day / We'll live by all that we say / Step by step now come what may

There's war all around the world / In the name of democracy / Can't tell the rouge from the just /

When they bring hypocrisy / I see my sisters on the move / Making sure we all contend /

Must've lost something on the way / We reduced ourselves again

There's disrepair / It's surrounding you / And it's worse than it's ever been / We'll overcome / Overcome the

things they do. / We're halfway there / Cause we know the truth / But living is another thing / We will overcome

Overcome the things they do / Lift your voice and say: / A change is coming our way / step by step and day by
