18th of July on the banks of a not-well-known river
I started a journey to where I am now
Troubled soul, troublemaker
Guided by the drums of my creator
Towards a rhythm and rhyme
A melody line of a song called freedom
Which, once heard, will never leave your head

We are people born of sound
The songs are in our eyes
Gonna wear them like a crown
Whoa, yea

[Chorus]
Walk out into the street
Sing your heart out
This love will not be beat
We're neither down or out
There's nothing you have that I need
While I can breathe

All those who stood together
Fist in air, now know this, that
Real division is not a scar on the land
But in the heart of every man
Who began as a kiss, not to resist, a knotted fist
Now an open hand, an open face, an open page
Where history might rewrite its rage
And the life you get to live
Is the one you give away
To forget who to forgive is a good thing

[Chorus 2]
Walk out into the street
Sing your heart out
This love will not be beat
Neither down or out
There's nothing you have that I need
While I can breathe
Breathe
Not while I can breathe

[Chorus 3]
Walk out into the street
Sing your heart out
This love will not be beat
Neither down or out
There's nothing you have that I need
While I can breathe
Breathe
Not while I can breathe
