See the expanse of the earth
Spread before you
The long road ahead
How long will it take to get there?
Nobody knows yet
End slavery
And the world sings a song
Give women and blacks the right to vote
The butterflies flit and dance
The long road ahead
How long will it take?
Nobody knows yet
Equalize same sex love
The sun has come out again
Give gender equality to women
Because we are powerful
The long road ahead
How long will it take?
Nobody knows yet
But
The earth moves under our feet
Because we are
Walking
Walking
Toward Equality
