Empire Cast - Powerful lyrics

rate me

Ft. Jussie Smollett and Alicia Keys

(Verse: Empire Cast)

People been talking about it

We won't just stand here in silence

Can't stop the fire from rising, rising

(Verse 2: Jussie Smollett)

People, don't you be afraid

So many innocent slain

This is an era for change, change

(Verse 3: Empire Cast)

And Malcolm's probably turning in his grave

Every shade was beautifully made

(Chorus)

And powerful

There's so much strength in you and me

Powerful

A breath away from victory

I matter, you matter, we matter

I matter, you matter, we matter

Powerful!

Powerful!

(Verse 4: )

I see a colorful future

Where skin don't define any human

Stars are the only thing shooting, shooting

(Verse 5: )

Another soul bury their child

How can we sit there and hide?

Change comes when all takes a stand, now

Stand up, stand up

(Verse 6:)

Martin speech still echoes in my brain

Every shade was beautifully made

(Chorus)

(Bridge)

Powerful

There's so much strength in you and me

Powerful

A breath away from victory

(Chorus)
