tu were there, before we came
tu took the hurt, tu took the shame
They built the walls to block your way
tu beat them down, tu won the día
It wasn't right, it wasn't fair
tu taught them all, tu made them care
Yes tu were there and thanks to tu
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...
'Cause tu were there
tu took the hurt, tu took the shame
They built the walls to block your way
tu beat them down, tu won the día
It wasn't right, it wasn't fair
tu taught them all, tu made them care
Yes tu were there and thanks to tu
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...
'Cause tu were there
Be Not Always - Lyrics
Always, be not always
And if always
Bow our heads in shame
Always, please be not always
And if always
Bow our heads in blame
’Cause time has made promises
Just promises
Faces, did tu see their faces
Did they touch you
Have tu felt such pain
To have nothing
To dream something
Then lose hoping
Is not life but lame
But time has made promises
Just promises
Mothers cry, bebés die
Helplessly in arms
While rockets fly
And research lies
In progress to become
But what of men
Of flesh and blood
We turn our backs on life
How can we claim to stand for peace
When the races are in strife
Destroying life
Always, be not always
But if always
Bow our heads in shame
Always, please, please be not always
’Cause if always
Bow our heads in blame
’Cause time, time has made promises
Death promises
Always, be not always
And if always
Bow our heads in shame
Always, please be not always
And if always
Bow our heads in blame
’Cause time has made promises
Just promises
Faces, did tu see their faces
Did they touch you
Have tu felt such pain
To have nothing
To dream something
Then lose hoping
Is not life but lame
But time has made promises
Just promises
Mothers cry, bebés die
Helplessly in arms
While rockets fly
And research lies
In progress to become
But what of men
Of flesh and blood
We turn our backs on life
How can we claim to stand for peace
When the races are in strife
Destroying life
Always, be not always
But if always
Bow our heads in shame
Always, please, please be not always
’Cause if always
Bow our heads in blame
’Cause time, time has made promises
Death promises
