Ricky Ross - We Shall Overcome the Whole Wide World lyrics

Artist: Ricky Ross

album: Trouble Came Looking


We shall overcome the whole wide world
Anything that blunts or wounds or scars
The evil king, the common thief
Weapons, chains and names will cease forever
For the general, the gentle heart
For the oligarch a life of love and service
We shall change the way all people think
And people will be all that we believe in
And all the good and all the gold
Every book and story told will set us free
And step by step we'll climb the hill
We'll scramble to the top until
We reach the very place
From where we see the sky
And everything below is just our world to change
We can overcome this raging sea
Don't we have the rain the wind the sun for free?
The clouds the snow the moon the stars
Are nothing if they're not all ours eternally
The morning light the sky ablaze
The birds song gently shaking us awake
And blow by blow and street by street
We'll march and chant and sing and sleep
To change the rules we cannot keep
Which no one else could believe
This whole wide world would ever change
Except you and me
