Traveling Far and near Trying to find me a quiet place But the harder, I try Night and day Trials and tribulations stands in my way
I'm moving higher, on higher grounds I'll never live my life chain and bound I'm not a slave (no slave) A slave (no slave) Don't treat me so Just let me be (no slave)
I'm not a slave (no slave) A slave (no slave) I'm not a slave I'm on higher ground
Many times I sit and I wonder If there is no justice No left to be found
But all of my thoughts Just gone under Humanity let us get up off the ground Got to climb higher, on higher grounds Listen to me people Suffer no more
We are no slaves (no slave) No slave (no slave) Don't ever lose your own your dignity (no slave)
I'm no slave (no slave) No slave (no slave) Don't treat me so I am on higher ground
Mama, mama Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh Mama, mama, mama Got to climb higher On higher grounds Listen to me people suffer no more
We are no slave (no slave) No slave (no slave) Don't ever lose your dignity (no slave)
We are no slave (no slave) No slave (no slave) Don't treat so I am on higher
Mama, mama, mama Oh! I am no slave (no slave) No slave (no slave) Don't treat me so I'm on higher ground
