Oh Man, Oh Man Lyrics

One night will come from far away, oh man, oh man

A restless wind is blowing.

You'll feel it shake the walls you've built, oh man, oh man

And know the cracks are showing.

It'll smell of sweat, of burning steel, oh man, oh man

And streets alive with voices.

The pressure builds, the world will feel, oh man, oh man

The weight of all our choices.

It'll move like workers on the line, oh man, oh man

Like hands worn down by labor.

To claim what's theirs, to draw the line, oh man, oh man

Against the hands that take them.

The banners rise, the sirens sound, oh man, oh man

The crowds begin their marches.

Their broken tools now strike the ground, oh man, oh man

And spark the fires in darkness.

Oh wind, be ruthless, fan the flames, oh man, oh man

Don't let us lose our courage.

When systems fall, we'll bear the weight, oh man, oh man

And stand to face the wreckage.

We'll bring the walls down stone by stone, oh man, oh man
