I am a song

I been here all along

I'll be here when the hatred's gone

Hey can you recognize me

I am the light of the sun





And if you come with me

And if you let it be (on my way back home)

And sing my melody

Then it don't have to wash away

In a memphis city rain





For the world a long time awaiting

For the hatred now to be fading

For the love to give





I am a song

But i'm not the one

They use to march their guns

And every child knows me

I am the light of the son
