paroles de chanson I Am Alive - Joseph Williams

Take a drink from the river
There was a look in his eyes wounding her pride
She'd seen it before though it's been all denied
Freedom is just within reach
But how can she learn what freedom won't teach
And she cries in the darkness,
I am alive,
I am alive
Take a drink from the river
We stand brother to brother
We still have our pride
Under troubled skies I am alive (I am alive)
She hears the carnival drums, sees the parade
But lies of the heart make all the colors fade
'Cause people go hungry tonight
To pay for the drums and the costumes they've made
And she cries in the darkness,
I am alive,
I am alive
Take a drink from the river (take a drink from the river)
We stand brother to brother
In our father's eyes we can't compromise
Take the hand of a stranger
We will carry each other (carry me, carry me)
We still have our pride
Under troubled skies I am alive (I am alive)
Under troubled skies I am alive (I am alive, I am alive)
And she cries in the darkness, I am alive, I am alive
Take a drink from the river (take a drink from the river)
We stand brother to brother (stand with me)
In our father's eyes we can't compromise
Take the hand of a stranger (take the hand of a stranger)
We will carry each other (carry each other)
We still have our pride
Under troubled skies I am alive (I am alive)
Under troubled skies I am alive (I am alive, I am alive)
(I am alive, I am alive)
(I am alive, I am alive)
(I am alive, I am alive)
(I am alive, I am alive)
(I am alive, I am alive)
(I am alive, I am alive)
(I am alive, I am alive)
