āĻāĻĒāĻ¨āĻŋ were there, before we came
āĻāĻĒāĻ¨āĻŋ took the hurt, āĻāĻĒāĻ¨āĻŋ took the shame
They built the walls to block your way
āĻāĻĒāĻ¨āĻŋ beat them down, āĻāĻĒāĻ¨āĻŋ won the āĻĻāĻŋāĻ¨
It wasn't right, it wasn't fair
āĻāĻĒāĻ¨āĻŋ taught them all, āĻāĻĒāĻ¨āĻŋ made them care
Yes āĻāĻĒāĻ¨āĻŋ were there and thanks to āĻāĻĒāĻ¨āĻŋ
There's now a door, we all walk through
And we are here, for all to see
To be the best that we can be
Yes I am here...
