It came down like a hurricane
Like an earthquake, freezing rain
Like a flood, like a lava flow
Like one crushing fatal blow
Born by will chained
Pride disdained
Tears by misery drained
And the soul they slain
With the moaning, with the growling
With a taste of blood on broken lips
In the clothing smell from a prison cell
And with bruises from shackle clips
With eyes looking straight at cruel fate
With an open heart that resists their hate
With the spirit that has been reborn
Brought from exile it marches on

[Chorus:]
Freedom comes! Freedom comes!
Ringing bells, banging drums
With love shining from her eyes
Making us arise
The Freedom comes!
Did you see them young and old?
Those betrayed, forsaken, sold
Those who came to change the world
Challenging despair?
Born by will chained
Pride disdained
Tears by misery drained
And the soul they slain

[Repeat Chorus:]
Like a hurricane
Like a freezing rain
Like a lava flow
Destroying you...

[Repeat Chorus:]
