I have a vision for us
A future for you and me (
With a place together
And peace on our own (
That's how I know it can be

I've been with you for sometime now (
And I know we've got some way to go (
I realize you turned my life around 
(We've got each other to keep from the cold 

I have a vision for us
A future for you and me
(With a place together
And peace on our own (
That's how I know it can be

We will have moments 
Where there's trouble and strife 
(But then that's all part of our life 
(People go through these things (
We have to fight to survive 
(To preserve what we know is right

I have a vision for us
A future of unity (
In this land together
With peace of our own (
Thats how I know we are free

We all should live  
With the other side in mind (
On our own its a lonely narrow road
(I see a time, where what was lost is found 
(Where love is unconditional
We've come a long way (
Through the ups and downs 
(And our share of good and bad(
(We were falling, fast yeah) 
(Now as the dawn breaks 
And the waters subside(
I know the future oh so bright

Africa, stand up, one love, one blood 
(I have a vision for us
A future for you and me)(
Africa, rise up, one love, one blood
((Thats how I know it can be)

I have a vision for us
A future of unity (
In this land together
With peace of our own (
Thats how I know we are free (2x)

Africa, stand up,  one love, one blood 
(Africa, rise up, one love, one blood 

I have a vision for us
A future of unity (
In this land together
With peace of our own (
Thats how I know we are free
