Richard Marx - One Man lyrics

It's a peaceful thing

To know that freedom as a rule belongs to me

There's something very wrong

When the color of a man is all you see

After all this time

How can a single voice explain

Any reason for the pain we all have seen

It's not a dream

One man stood tall

And faced the devil with his back to the wall

And took one step

Closer to Heaven above

So he took a stand

Walked where no one else would dare to even try

It was the only way

If not for bravery the soul would surely die

Right before my eyes, he gave his life unselfishly

So that all the father's children could be free

Like you and me

One man stood tall

And faced the devil with his back to the wall

And took one step

Closer to Heaven above

Before his work is done

We've got to put an end to this game of choosing sides

I want us to be one

And I won't let it go 'til it's over

I'm here waiting

One man stood tall

And faced the devil with his back to the wall

And took one step

Closer to Heaven above

One man, one job

Faced the devil with his back to the wall

One step closer to Heaven above

One man stood tall

With his back to the wall

Waiting, waiting
