One Man Stands - Anthrax

The enemy is dead

I can’t believe what I said

The enemy is dead

Did it only exist in our head?

Sheltered from the evils of the world

Until the truth is seen

Sheltered from realities of life

Your human rights are free

Freedom, taken for granted

'Cause we don’t know what oppression means

Freedom, taken for granted

By the leaders who would crush the dream

A crack exposing human rights

Light against the granite sky

A crack exposing human life

A fire burns

For the freedom

For the freedom, for the freedom

Never given, but taken

For the freedom, die for the reason

One man stands

Hard as he waits for freedom’s hand

A unified voice for freedom of choice

One man stands for life he’ll give his

Would you give yours to fight for a cause?

One man stands and the wall cracks

And the wall cracks, and the wall cracks

And the walls come crumbling

Down with old ideals

That could never work in modern times

Free choice, religious freedom

Basic rights are on the bottom line

Down with all the icons

Of the past cold war and detente

The flock no longer fears the wolf

The flock is taking what it wants

A crack exposing human rights

Light against the granite sky

A crack exposing human life

A fire burns

For the freedom

For the freedom, for the freedom

Never given but taken

For the freedom, die for the reason

One man stands

Hard as he waits for freedom’s hand

A unified voice for freedom of choice

One man stands for life he’ll give his

Would you give yours to fight for a cause?

One man stands and the wall cracks

And the wall cracks, and the wall cracks

And the walls come crumbling down

One man stands for life and oppression

One might cause us all children

Every man stands and fights who is my enemy?

One man’s moon will fall one man stands

One man stands

Hard as he waits for freedom’s hand

A unified voice for freedom of choice

One man stands for life he’ll give his

Would you give yours to fight for a cause?

One man stands and the wall cracks

And the wall cracks, and the wall cracks

And the walls come crumbling down
