never has the story of the

old glory needed indtroduction

or induction

just the passing on of morals

from the parents to the children

generation after generation

one nation to the next

 

its a story of american revolution

where power was the problem

and freedom the solution

 

it wasn't just a bunch a guys

looking to the skies blinded by the horizon line

 

it wasn't just a bunch a nonsense worth two cents

you gotta take control of your soul and your reverence

 

you gotta live to to love and love to live

the life you lead and strive to survive

 

take a look at the path man

take a look at the path

we gotta learn from the past brother

we gotta learn from the past

 

take a look at the past

 

 

its the story of a astronaut

reaching for the stars with everything hes got

 

its a history as bloody as it ever was

so we gotta strive on to get a better one

 

we gotta know where we've been

to know where we ought to be

we gotta know why we're here

and wanna learn how to see

don't follow him, her or he

all you got do is

goddamnit be free

 

 

 

power to the hands

power to the hands

power to the hands of the people who are free

 

power to the hands

power to the hands

power of the hands of the people who are free

 

power to the unity

power to the unity

power to the unity assuming we can all be free

 

power to the unity

power to the unity

power to the unity assuming we can all be free

 

ohh take the hand of your brother

gotta respect one another
