Lee Hall - Once We Were Kings lyrics

Once we built visions on the ground we hewed We dreamt of justice and of men renewed All people equal, in all things We once were heroes Once were kings But all great things must come to pa** We know the first will soon be last And in the ground we maybe lain But a seed is sown to rise again So we walk proudly And we walk strong All together We will go atone The ground is empty And cold as hell But we all go together when we go We saw a land where wealth was shared Each pain relieved, each hunger fed Each man revered, each tyrant k**ed Each soul redeemed, each life fulfilled From each man's means to each his need We saw a time man would be freed We fought for all the things we saw The battle's lost but not the war So we walk proudly And we walk strong All together We will go as one The ground is empty And cold as hell But we all go together when we go We will go down but our heads are proud We will go down with our voices loud We will go down but come again And we all go together when we go Ah... (3 times) And we all go together when we go We walk proudly, and we walk strong All together we will go as one The ground is empty, and cold as hell But we all go together when we go We walk proudly, and we walk strong All together we will go as one The ground is empty, and cold as hell But we all go together when we go We walk proudly, and we walk strong All together we will go as one The ground is empty, and cold as hell But we all go together when we go
