This song was originally written as a tribute to the annual Spring Pride festival in my hometown. However, it then evolved into a more generic tribute to all kind of struggles for good causes be it past, present or future.
MartiMedia (https://soundcloud.com/martimedia) provided both lead and backing vocals.
I suggest using the Youtube link first for a enhanced listening experience, the Soundcloud link will probably have a slightly better sound quality though.

Using Cubase 7.5, Waves & IK Multimedia & PodFarm plugs, JamStix, Steven Slate Drums, a bunch of Ibanez guitars and a Peavey Cirrus BXP 5-string bass.
I must say I’m very pleased with the result, curious what others think ![]()
WE WILL PREVAIL
How did we get this far?
They said we did not stand a chance
We proved them wrong
We stood the test
They never knew who we were
Like we never existed at all
never seen
and never heard
No matter what they take from us
No matter how they threaten us
No matter what they do
We will prevail
No matter what they think of us
No matter what they say of us
No matter what they do
We will prevail
Where do we go from here?
Love is blind but so is hate
Hate has time
But love can’t wait
If wishes were horses
then beggars would ride
There’s no change that came for free
Pride’s impatient
And so are we
No matter what they take from us
No matter how they threaten us
No matter what they do
We will prevail
No matter what they think of us
No matter what they say of us
No matter what they do
We will prevail
We’re marching out
Our flags high in the air
We’re marching out
Our quest is one that is fair
We’re marching out
Had more than we can bear
We’re marching out
Come face us if you dare
No matter what they take from us
No matter how they threaten us
No matter what they do
We will prevail
No matter what they think of us
No matter what they say of us
No matter what they do
We will prevail
