There Were Tears

Un bel pezzo folk-soul presentato come un dialogo immaginario tra Nelson Mandela e le nuove generazioni, sull'importanza di combattere per la giustizia perché "Mandela non era un eroe ma solo una persona determinata a far trionfare la pace che non può esistere senza giustizia".
There were tears and fears even in my dreams
The sound of my wound and my inner scream
They chained my legs, but I've been always free
I always do even on my knees,
There were no begin, there were no please
I always knew blood could be the price of peace

Sons and daughters, here I am
You can knock knock knock knock on my door
Be no laughters, here I am
You can knock knock knock knock on my door

Don't stop fighting 'till some hearts start bleeding
Don't stop fighting while they keep on lying
Truth never lies, they will fall apart
Truth never lies, they will fall apart

Empty pages and written stories, then no areas of the memories
Poor can be poor, they preach we were no man
I will be defined through their eyes
Check another hope, least we are alike
Freedom is in your mind

Sons and daughters, here I am
You can knock knock knock knock on my door
Freedom fighters, here I am
You can knock knock knock knock on my door

Don't stop fighting 'till some hearts start bleeding
Don't stop fighting while they keep on lying
Truth never lies, they will fall apart
Truth never lies, they will fall apart

One must fallen truth will fall down
One must fallen truth will fall down
There is no justice, there won't be no peace
One must fallen truth will fall down
One must fallen truth will fall down
There is no justice, there won't be no peace

Sons and daughters, here I am
You can knock knock knock knock on my door
Freedom fighters, here I am
You can knock knock knock knock on my door

Don't stop fighting 'till some hearts start bleeding
Don't stop fighting while they keep on lying
Truth never lies, they will fall apart
Truth never lies, they will fall apart

Sons and daughters,
Here I am, here I am

Don't stop fighting,
Here I am, here I am
