Story Behind The Song

Dear All, On the 7th January, the peace and calm of my adopted country ( France ) was shaken and changed forever by the action of people who have no regard for the values that this country - and many others - stand for. The reaction of the citizens - great and small - to this tragedy in France ( and abroad ) must serve as a reminder to us all that only through working together can we improve the world no matter what our race, creed or belief. Central to this must the need to preserve free speech and free expression - where would we be without it ?

Song Description

The words speak for themselves

Lyrics

I am ....... Je suis ......

I am your voice,
I am your truth,
I am the light that keeps shinin
I light the way when the darkness descends
I hold you hand when the straight road bends

I keep you free
I let you be
Everything you always wished for

Time after time,
Day after day
When we stand together our hearts soar

I have my say when the darkness descends
Liberty and I will always be friends.

Lift up your pens and let good words prevail
Draw your pictures and aggression will fail
Don't let the actions of cowards pertain
Send them a message that freedom will reign

I have my say when the darkness descends
Liberty and I, we will always be friends.

Lift up your pens and let good words prevail
Draw your pictures and aggression will fail
Don't let the actions of cowards pertain
Send them a message that freedom will reign

I am your voice .......... Je suis votre voix,
I am your truth .......... Je suis votre vérité,
I am the spirit that keeps you going ....... Je suis l'esprit qui vous maintient

When there is doubt ....... Lorsque ce cest doute,
When there is fear ....... Quand il ya la peur,
I am the thing that is knowing ....... Je suis la chose qui est de savoir.

Nous sommes tous de nous
