आप were there, before we came
आप took the hurt, आप took the shame
They built the walls to block your way
आप beat them down, आप won the दिन
It wasn't right, it wasn't fair
आप taught them all, आप made them care
Yes आप were there and thanks to आप
There's now a door, we all walk through
And we are here, for all to see
To be the best that we can be
Yes I am here...
'Cause आप were there
आप took the hurt, आप took the shame
They built the walls to block your way
आप beat them down, आप won the दिन
It wasn't right, it wasn't fair
आप taught them all, आप made them care
Yes आप were there and thanks to आप
There's now a door, we all walk through
And we are here, for all to see
To be the best that we can be
Yes I am here...
'Cause आप were there
