[Chorus: ]
0h yeah yeah wo yay oh
Songs of freedom songs that save my soul
Ancient echoes of my past bring light and life to me
The same old song that my mother sang
Was a song that set me free

Deep in the night she would rock her child singing over me
The very same song her mother sang the prayers of centuries
The cry was freedom all the way
Feel it in the music hear it in the words I sing

[Chorus: ]

And when the pain of yesterday plagues my memory
My song is a light to chase the lies
The past is telling me
I lift my head up to the sky and suddenly I see
I know the truth, I know myself
And I know my destiny

The cry is freedom all the way
Feel it in the music hear it in the words I sing

[Chorus: ]
I know their worth, I know their worth
