It's a new day... It's a new day... It's a new day... It's a new day... It's been a long time comin' Up the mountain kept runnin' Songs of freedom kept hummin' Channelin' Harriet Tubman, Kennedy, Lincoln, and King We gotta manifest that dream It feels like we're swimmin' up stream It feels like I'm stuck in between A rock and a hard place We've been through the heartaches And lived through the darkest days If you and I made it this far well then Hey! We can make it all the way And they said no we can't and we said yes we can Remember it's you and me, together I woke up this mornin' feelin' alright I've been fightin' for tomorrow all my life Yeah, I woke up this mornin' feelin' brand new Cause the dreams that I've been dreamin' have finally come true It's a new day... It's a new day... It's a new day... It's a new day... It's a new day... It's a new day... It's a new day... It's been a long time waitin' Waitin' for this moment It's been a long time prayin' Prayin' for this moment We've hoped for this moment And now that we own it For life I'm 'a hold it And I won't let it go This is for our fathers Our brothers, our friends Who fought for freedom Our sisters our mothers Who died for us to be in this moment Stop and cherish this moment Stop and cherish this time It's time for unity For us and we That's you and me, together I woke up this mornin' feelin' brand new Cause the dreams that I've been dreamin' finally came true Yeah, I woke up this mornin' feelin' alright Cause we weren't fightin' for nothin' And the soldiers weren't fightin' for nothin' No Martin wasn't dreamin' for nothin' And Lincoln didn't change it for nothin' And children weren't cryin' for nothin' It's a new day! It's a new day! It's a new day! It's a new day! It's a new day! It's a new day! It's a new day! LyricsFreak
