We are all people

Do you hear the people sing?
Singing the song of angry men
It is the music of a people who will not be slaves again
When the beating of your heart echoes the beating of the drums
There is a life about to start when tomorrow comes

Will you join in our crusade?
Who will be strong and stand with me?
Beyond the barricade is there a world you long to see?
Then join in the fight that will give you the right to be free

Do you hear the people sing?
Singing the song of angry men
It is the music of a people who will not be slaves again
When the beating of your heart echoes the beating of the drums
There is a life about to start when tomorrow comes

Will you give all you can give
so that our banner may advance?
Some will fall and some will live
Will you stand up and take your chance?
The blood of the martyrs will water the meadows of France

Do you hear the people sing?
Singing the song of angry men
It is the music of a people who will not be slaves again
When the beating of your heart echoes the beating of the drums
There is a life about to start when tomorrow comes

Do you hear the people sing
lost in the valley of the night
It is the music of the people who are climbing to the light
For the wretched of the earth there is a plane that never dies
Even the darkest times will end and the sun will rise

We will live again in freedom
in the garden of the Lord
We will walk behind the plough share we will put away the sword
The chain will be broken and all men will have their reward

Will you join in our crusade?
Who will be strong and stand with me?
Beyond the barricade is there a world you long to see?
Do you hear the people sing?
Say do you hear the distant drums?
It is the future that we bring when tomorrow comes

Will you join in our crusade?
Who will be strong and stand with me?
Beyond the barricade is there a world you long to see?
Do you hear the people sing?
Say do you hear the distant drums?
It is the future that we bring when tomorrow comes


We are all people. 
Colour, religion, sex, orientation, money, societal status, culture, education and politics don't matter.
This is our crusade.
To make people understand.
Will you spread the word?
