III. Ego Trippin’
Oh, freedom!
Oh, freedom over me.

Free!

We shall overcome.
Right now.

We shall not be moved.
Like a tree that’s standing by the water;
We shall not be moved.

On the road to justice,
We shall not be moved.
Just like a tree that standing by the water;
We shall not be moved.

No justice; no peace!

Lift every voice and sing,
'Til earth and Heaven ring.
Ring with the harmonies of liberty.
Let our rejoicing rise,
High as the listening skies.
Let it resound loud as the rolling sea.

Sing a song full of the faith that the dark past has taught us.
Sing a song full of the hope that the present has brought us.

Facing the rising sun,
Of our new day begun.
Let us march on ‘til victory is won.

—Songs from the Civil Rights era, Oh, Freedom, We Shall
Overcome, We Shall Not Be Moved, and James Weldon
Johnson’s Lift Every Voice and Sing.
