On My Own

On My Own (獨自一人) (《一個國家的誕生》電影插曲) - Lecrae/Leon Bridges (利昂·布里奇斯)

Leon Bridges：

I've come a long way

From a very hard place

It's been a hard race

But somehow I found my way home

I've walked a long road

To where only god knows

But when the trumpet blows you know

I did it all on my own

Oh oh oh oh

Ohhhhhh

Oh oh oh oh

Ohhhhhh

Lecrae：

I've been pushing hard

I've been praying harder

Only heaven can help me

They took my earthly father

Martyred and promised me death then walked me into my grave

I'd rather die a free man then live on earth a slave

I'm fighting for people they put in chains

They stripped our heritage they took our names

Put our women to shame

Whipped us and beat us mislead us but they can't take our passion

Take my body but my soul won't fit inside your casket

Leon Bridges：

Forget what I said forget what I did

I did what I had to do and I'd do it all again

And if you're going through hell

Keep it going my baby promise that heaven is near

I've come a long way

From a very hard place

It's been a hard race

But somehow I found my way home

I've walked a long road

To where only god knows

But when the trumpet blows you know

I did it all on my own

Oh oh oh oh

Ohhhhhh

Oh oh oh oh

Ohhhhhh

Lecrae：

Taken from Africa

Treated like animals

Culturally denigrated

Broke up our families

Prison of false religion the same god you lied on

The same god I rely on I'm strive on

Alone just a small tribe

Fought for truth for y'all died

Martyrs live forever so

Out the depths we all rise

Die for a freedom that I'll never see

I pray y'all live it to the fullest for my legacy

Let's go

Leon Bridges：

Forget what I said forget what I did

I did what I had to do and I'd do it all again

And if you're going through hell

Keep it going my baby promise that heaven is near

I've come a long way

From a very hard place

It's been a hard race

But somehow I found my way home

I've walked a long road

To where only god knows

But when the trumpet blows you know

I did it all on my own

Oh oh oh oh

Ohhhhhh

Oh oh oh oh

Ohhhhhh

I did it all on my own

Oh oh oh oh

Ohhhhhh

Oh oh oh oh

Ohhhhhh

I did it all on my own
