[Intro]
Mm-mm, mm-mm
[Verse 1]
I met a man
Who was raised drinking free water
Water owned by no one
Abundance for everyone
There's enough for everyone
It got me thinking
Who the hell do we think are
Tryna own, control, and command
Mama Nature?
Oh, the demands
'Cause I wanna be there
When we finally free the streams
I wanna taste the liberation
Freedom from the chains of legislation
Freedom to my first nation
I wanna be there
I wanna be there
I wanna be there
[Chorus]
So I'll keep praying
Free the streams, free the streams, free the streams
I'll keep praying
Free the streams, free the streams, free the streams
Won't you pray with me?
Won't you pray with me?
[Verse 2]
To the freedom of the water, I pledge
(To the freedom of the water, I pledge)
My commitment at the river's edge
(My commitment at the river's edge)
To the freedom of the water, I pledge
(To the freedom of the water, I pledge)
My commitment at the river's edge
(My commitment at the river's edge)
Don't you wanna be there
For your grandmothers and grandfathers?
Don't you wanna be there
For our sons and our daughters?
Don't you wanna be there?
(Don't you wanna be there?)
Don't you wanna be there?
(Don't you wanna be there?)
[Chorus]
So I'll keep praying
Free the streams, free the streams, free the streams
I'll keep praying
Free the streams, free the streams, free the streams
Won't you pray with me? (Won't you pray with me?)
Won't you pray with me? (Won't you pray with me?)
[Outro]
I'll meet you there (Mm-mm)
I'll meet you there (Mm-mm)
I'll meet you there (Mm-mm)
I'll meet you there (Mm-mm)
