Lyrics

BORN OF A REVOLUTION
(Lyrics and music by Winston Apple)

We are a nation born of a revolution
The greatest revolution in history
Birthed by a few Truths
We are endowed by our Creator
With the rights to pursue happiness, and to life, and to liberty

The road we are on is long, with many a twist and turn
Mistakes have been made along the way
Hard lessons have been learned
There are still some among us who do not know what they do not know
We’ve come a long way, Baby, but we’ve still got a long way to go

Too many here among us have yet to learn the Golden Rule
Too many fail to see that only Love will set us free
We do each other wrong
The weak preyed on by the strong
Victimized by hate and fear and lust and greed

We are a nation born of a revolution
The greatest revolution in history is yet to be
There are still some among us
Waiting impatiently
For Justice long denied and a chance to be truly free

We are a nation born of a revolution…
