Lyrics: Yes
 
OBAMA
In small towns and big cities
We came together
As Democrats, Republicans, and Independents
To stand up and say that we are
One nation, we are one people
And our time for change has come
 
Oh...
I believe
I believe
I believe
Oh...
I believe
I believe
I believe
Oh...
I believe
I believe
I believe
Oh...
I believe
I believe
I believe
Oh, Oh, I...
 
When the mountain seems too high
And you don't have the courage nor the strength to climb
In a road you all 'lone in
But still you run though you can not see the finish line
And dark clouds are over you
Your sky's no longer blue
But you marched on straight ahead
And somehow you made it through
Got to the mountain
And lead the path for me
Your victory made history and now I believe
 
I believe
I believe
I believe
Oh...
I believe
I believe
I believe
Oh...
I believe
I believe
I believe
Oh...
I believe
I believe
I believe
Oh, Oh, I...
 
When it felt like you and we couldn't fight no more
On the ropes and it seemed like you was gonna' run out of breath
When the world was on your shoulders
And the walls were in your way
You leaped and made it over
Through it all you kept the faith
With hope you'll set us free
You showed us how to dream
And now we can lift our voices and forever see
Now's the time to look ahead
And think of the heroes of the past
To celebrate this victory
Let's raise the flag cause I believe
 
I believe
I believe
I believe
Oh...
I believe
I believe
I believe
Oh...
I believe
I believe
I believe
Oh...
I believe
I believe
I believe
Oh, Oh, I...
 
And when they tried to keep you down
You kept up your head
Never losing sight
You believed in what was right
You endured to the end
Walked threw the strongest wind
And when our hope was dying
You brought us healing
And now I got something
To tell my children
 
I believe
WOAH!
OH!
I believe
OH!
I believe
OH OH!
I believe
I believe
YEAH!
 
I believe
I believe
I believe, that a change is gonna' come
Yes it will
Yes it will
Listen, I believe
In the future
That the changes coming to America
So stand up
Stand up
Stand up
Stand up
Stand up
Stand up
Lift every voice and sing
 
Hey!
That the soldiers is coming home
Yeah
That it wont be long
That the change is gonna come
Say it
I believe
Hey hey hey
Oh I believe, yes
