You never get enough to eat
Living on the breadline
Try to make a dollar on the street
When you're living on the breadline
My children got to have a bed
Must be clean and fed
And not live in dread
Of what can happen to us all - mercy
If they don't get a decent education
It's a no win situation
Living on the breadline - oh yeah
One day the tide is gonna turn
But there's gotta be a deadline
Too many people have to learn
So there's gotta be a deadline
For those who never see the light
And who would rather fight
You gotta get it right
Before your judgement comes around - and it will
Don't you realize the day is coming
I'm so tired of getting up and running
There's gotta be a deadline - yeah yeah
One soul, one voice
Everybody's gotta make a choice
One day you'll come to understand
No single living man can take my pride
Or the power of the dream inside
Can take away my pride
Or the power of the dream inside
They took the greatest man on earth
I read it in the headlines
You'll never understand his worth
They said it in the headlines
He told us all to shout out loud
That we must all be proud
And one day he vowed
That every one of us would see - gotta learn
That nothing can be gained by silence
Don't give in to any thoughts of violence
I read it in the headlines - yeah yeah
One soul, one voice
Till the day that we can all rejoice
One dream until our soul is free
That's all we'll ever need to stay alive
It's the only way we can survive
One soul, one voice
Everybody's gotta make a choice
One day you'll come to understand
No single living man can take my pride
Or the power of the dream inside
One soul, one voice
Till the day that we can all rejoice
One dream until our soul is free
That's all we'll ever need to stay alive
It's the only way we can survive
One soul, one voice
Everybody's gotta make a choice
One day you'll come to understand
No single living man can take my pride
Or the power of the dream inside
One soul, one voice
Till the day that we can all rejoice
One dream until our soul is free
That's all we'll ever need to stay alive
It's the only way we can survive
