Put this behind me, that day is gonna come
I'm breaking the walls down, one by one
Nothing can stop me, that day is gonna come
Oo oo oo yeah, Oo oo oo yeah
Oo oo oo yeah, Oo oo oo yeah
My mama told me, that day is gonna come
You'll get through the dark nights, that feels so long
And then in the morning, that day is gonna come
That day is gonna come, that day is gonna come
You know I believe it, that day is gonna come
Oo oo oo yeah, Oo oo oo yeah
Oo oo oo yeah, Oo oo oo yeah
We're going to a place, we all belong
No more sadness, that day is gonna come
No more hatred, our love is strong
Brothers and sisters, that day is gonna come
That day is gonna come, that day is gonna come
You know I can feel it, that day is gonna come
I'll break through the ceiling, that day is gonna come
Nothing can stop me, that day is gonna come
All these possibilities
Right in front of my eyes
And I aint ever looking back
