LYRICS:
I been walkin'
With my face turned to the sun
Weight on my shoulders
A bullet in my gun
Oh, I got eyes in the back of my head
Just in case I have to run
I do what I can when I can while I can for my people
While the clouds roll back and the stars fill the night
That's when I'm gonna stand up
Take my people with me
Together we are going
To a brand new home
Far across the river
Can you hear freedom calling?
Calling me to answer
Gonna keep on keepin' on
I can feel it in my bones
Early in the mornin'
Before the sun begins to shine
We're gonna start movin'
Towards that separating line
I'm wadin' through muddy waters
You know I got a made up mind
And I don't mind if I lose any blood on the way to salvation
And I'll fight with the strength that I got until I die
So I'm gonna stand up
Take my people with me
Together we are going
To a brand new home
Far across the river
Can you hear freedom calling?
Calling me to answer
Gonna keep on keepin' on
And I know what's around the bend
Might be hard to face 'cause I'm alone
And I just might fail
But Lord knows I tried
Sure as stars fill up the sky
Stand up
Take my people with me
Together we are going
To a brand new home
Far across the river
Can you hear freedom calling?
Calling me to answer
Gonna keep on keepin' on
I'm gonna stand up
Take my people with me
Together we are going
To a brand new home
Far across the river
Do you hear freedom calling?
Calling me to answer
Gonna keep on keepin' on
I'm gonna stand up
Take my people with me
Together we are going
To a brand new home
Far across the river
I hear freedom calling
Calling me to answer
Gonna keep on keepin' on
I can feel it in my bones
I go to prepare a place for you
I go to prepare a place for you
I go to prepare a place for you
I go to prepare a place for you

Quem é brasileiro e está escutando essa mulher maravilhosa? 🇧🇷

[@PlayCitacoesOficial]

Ficou incrível, mas acho que a versão do Gabriel Henrique vai ser difícil de bater.

[@charmed2girl]

I mean I understand both sides of the comments. Yes its a song about slavery but its not just about slavery, its about a struggle. U never know someones struggle unless u walk a mile in their shoes. She could be going through her own personal battles and channeling it through this song or she could just be singing it because its in her vocal range but either way she killed it 👌🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽 🔥 instead of feeding into negativity think about the words of the song. Whether she sings it or someone else, it doesn’t change what the song represents and what the song is about.

[@rachaelbishko412]

Exactly- when I free the slaves, the younger selves of me, in the morning during meditation, when I pray - am standing up!

[@dragonlii6436]

This song is meant solely for slavery because It’s for Harriet but ofc it can be interpreted many different ways

[@Bezgacha]

@@dragonlii6436 I think song faces more just Black History, Like everything the black community has to go thru together. Not just slavery.

[@dragonlii6436]

I doubt that but again it can be interpreted many different ways.

[@samanthaunderwood4028]

It’s strictly about slavery it was in the Harriet Tubman movie

[@noryie4242]

songs are like poetry, people. they are not only what the writer meant but what the audience interprets when they read/hear it.

[@salimerekhorami5039]

I was not expecting to like this! Sung with emotion. Love the depth.

[@IvyGrove]

Thank you so much!

[@chantapressley9797]

You song this song with passion because you felt our message. We love you and thank you soul sista.

[@kennedy4257]

I always thought it was disrespectful until I was told as long as you’re not mocking or making fun it’s representation. I agree she sang it beautifully!

[@Pedro-jb4cr]

Wow that's an amazing interpretation. Btw, you look like the actress Elizabeth Gillies :) Xoxo from Brazil !

[@felry]

[@baileyxthings]

[@haileywallace2501]

Her range is beautiful. It's one thing to be good at singing, but it's another to have a voice range that she has!

[@ymcghee40]

Well now. I've listened to Cynthia's recording 50 times at least. And nearly as many covers. I must say this is my fave cover. Great job

FAÇA SOL E FAÇA CHUVA BRASIL NAO VIRA CUBA 💚💛SE FOR PRECISO A GENTE ACAMPA MAS O LADRÃO NÃO SOBRE A RAMPA 💚💛 Somos a resistênciaaaa... Somos o Povo do Brasil.
