Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Heaven's children touched by fire
From the field far away
Voices calling out the way
You no longer have to stay
[Verse 2]
Rise in flames or rise in pain
Find a home on this day
Oh-ho-ho-ho, mhmm
Oh-ho-ho, ooh
[Verse 3]
Have 'em build the shackles, a cargo of ghosts
Rattling chains that weigh the most
End of the line, that Liberty Bell
Locomotion firin' onward from hell
[Verse 4]
An hour of freedom worth a life in pain
The Lincolns comin', all aboard that train
[Verse 5]
We scream in tunnels, the engine sings
Into the steam, ridin' a dream
Havin' some fun, it's chasin' time
Circles of fire on a horse of iron
[Verse 6]
An hour of freedom worth a life in pain
TheLincolns comin', all aboard that train
[Verse 7]
Keep on movin' till the shackles are gone
(Cross that water to the land beyond)
Keep on movin' till the shackles are gone
(Cross that water to the land beyond)
Keep on movin' till the shackles are gone
(Cross that water to the land beyond)
