The enemy is dead
I can't believe what I said
The enemy is dead
Did it only exist in our head?
Sheltered from the evils of the world
Until the truth is seen
Sheltered from realities of life
Your human rights are free
Freedom, taken for granted
'Cause we don't know what oppression means
Freedom, taken for granted
By the leaders who would crush the dream
A crack exposing human rights
Light against the granite sky
A crack exposing human life
A fire burns
For the freedom
For the freedom, for the freedom
Never given, but taken
For the freedom, die for the reason
One man stands
Hard as he waits for freedom's hand
A unified voice for freedom of choice
One man stands for life he'll give his
Would you give yours to fight for a cause?
One man stands and the wall cracks
And the wall cracks, and the wall cracks
And the walls come crumbling
Down with old ideals
That could never work in modern times
Free choice, religious freedom
Basic rights are on the bottom line
Down with all the icons
Of the past cold war and detente
The flock no longer fears the wolf
The flock is taking what it wants
A crack exposing human rights
Light against the granite sky
A crack exposing human life
A fire burns
For the freedom
For the freedom, for the freedom
Never given but taken
For the freedom, die for the reason
One man stands
Hard as he waits for freedom's hand
A unified voice for freedom of choice
One man stands for life he'll give his
Would you give yours to fight for a cause?
One man stands and the wall cracks
And the wall cracks, and the wall cracks
And the walls come crumbling down
One man stands for life and oppression
One might cause us all children
Every man stands and fights who is my enemy?
One man's moon will fall one man stands
One man stands
Hard as he waits for freedom's hand
A unified voice for freedom of choice
One man stands for life he'll give his
Would you give yours to fight for a cause?
One man stands and the wall cracks
And the wall cracks, and the wall cracks
And the walls come crumbling down
In the Know
