The truth will set you free
The truth will set you free
The truth will set you free
The truth will set you free
Oh, now
Visions of performing in front of festival crowds
The mic and the music's all that's left of him now
As he stands naked and bare, he's taken it there
His heart's on the page, and his head's in the clouds
And as he looks down, he sees a world made whole
People of every shade and shape sharing the same soul
Erasing their past hatred, embracing the vast sacred expanse of the human race
From the day they're a day old
And this ain't no naive dream
It's a testament to us that, through everything we've seen
We still believe people need to be equal
Leave deceit, evil behind and breathe free
In a world without hate
A world where we all are the masters of our fates
When clouds break and all of our lights can now shine
We will know that together, we have found Cloud 9
The truth will set you free
The truth will set you free
The truth will set you free
The truth will set you free
So listen close, this next verse is for you
You assume you're one of many, so you worship the few
Thinking tryna make a difference is a worthless pursuit
Because society's blinders are obscuring your view
Every human being has capacity to do good
So testify your truth with the veracity that you should
And fight for your beliefs with a tenacity that few could
Cuz when the false fell and yielded mastery, the true stood
So make that change
We're running out of time, but the game ain't over yet
I say this without a doubt in mind
Through unity and passion, I know we will find the power
And if we don't, at least we made our final hour our finest hour
The choice starts with you
Your body, soul, and mind, your voice, heart, and views
This is your show now, I think it's about time for your formal introduction
Welcome to Cloud 9
The truth will set you free
The truth will set you free
The truth will set you free
The truth will set you free
I need you to stand with me
We only get one shot
We only get one opportunity on the Earth
But everything you need is in you
(You are my brother, you are my sister, I need you, I need you)
You just gotta look inside and see that we are one, we are one, oh
Take me by the hand
Let's work together to make this world a better place
I need you
I need you to rise up
I need you to stand up
I need you (Stand with me, stand with me)
I need you
The truth will set you free
The truth will set you free
I know the truth will set you free
The truth will set you free
The truth will set you free
The truth will set you free
I know the truth will set you free
The truth will set you free
