[male vocals] Standing
tall,
through
the
midnight
rain
BenjaminKomolafe,
rising
from
the
pain
The
shadows
stretched
across
the
marble
floor
I
walked
the
halls
I’
d
never
known
before
The
silence
heavy
like
a
winter
shroud
I
spoke
my
truth
but
never
said
it
loud
The
echoes
of
the
ghosts
I
used
to
be
Were
pulling
at
the
anchor,
holding
me
But
in
the
deep,
a
flicker
started
bright
A
revolution
burning
through
the
night
I
am
still
here,
through
the
fire
and
the
fear
BenjaminKomolafe,
let
the
world
finally
hear
I
am
still
here,
like
a
mountain
in
the
storm
Forged
in
the
struggle,
keeping
my
spirit
warm
Still
here,
still
here,
the
light
is
breaking
through
Still
here,
still
here,
I’
m
starting
life
anew
The
path
was
jagged,
stone
against
the
bone
I
walked
the
longest
miles
all
on
my
own
But
look
at
how
the
golden
dawn
arrives
A
testament
to
all
the
hidden
lives
I
carry
scars
like
medals
on
my
chest
I
took
the
challenge,
put
it
to
the
test
The
orchestra
is
swelling
in
my
soul
I’
m
taking
back
the
pieces,
becoming
whole
I
am
still
here,
through
the
fire
and
the
fear
BenjaminKomolafe,
let
the
world
finally
hear
I
am
still
here,
like
a
mountain
in
the
storm
Forged
in
the
struggle,
keeping
my
spirit
warm
Still
here,
still
here,
the
light
is
breaking
through
Still
here,
still
here,
I’
m
starting
life
anew
Can
you
feel
the
thunder
in
the
ground?
Can
you
hear
the
trumpet's
holy
sound?
We
rise,
we
rise,
above
the
dying
embers
A
moment
that
the
history
remembers
We
rise,
we
rise,
the
symphony
is
grand
Building
up
the
future
with
my
own
hand
No
looking
back
at
what
I
left
behind
A
stronger
heart,
a
sharper,
focused
mind
The
anthem
plays
for
every
soul
that
strayed
For
all
the
promises
that
we
have
made
I’
m
standing
where
the
horizon
meets
the
blue
Everything
I
vision
is
coming
true
BenjaminKomolafe,
look
at
where
I
stand
Commanding
every
note,
across
the
land
I
am
still
here,
through
the
fire
and
the
fear
BenjaminKomolafe,
let
the
world
finally
hear
I
am
still
here,
like
a
mountain
in
the
storm
Forged
in
the
struggle,
keeping
my
spirit
warm
Still
here,
still
here,
the
light
is
breaking
through
Still
here,
still
here,
I’
m
starting
life
anew
Still
here,
the
king
of
my
own
heart
Still
here,
a
brand
new
work
of
art
BenjaminKomolafe,
I
am
still
here
Still
here...
standing
forever.
