Powerful (feat. Jussie Smollett & Alicia Keys) Lyrics

People been talking about it
We won't just stand here in silence
Can't stop the fire from rising
Rising
Ooh OohPeople don't you be afraid
So many innocents slain
This is an era for change
ChangeAnd Malcolm's probably turning in his graveEvery shade was beautifully madeAnd Powerful
There's so much strength in you and me
Powerful
A breathe away from victoryI matter
You matter
We matter, all
I matter
You matter
We matter, allPowerful
PowerfulI see a colorful future
Where skin don't define any human

And stars are the only thing shooting
Shooting, wow ohMothers that bury their child
How can we sit there and hide
Change comes when all take a stand now
Stand up
Stand upMartin's speech still echoes in my brainEvery shade was beautifully madeAnd Powerful
There's so much strength in you and me
Powerful
A breathe away from victoryI matter
You matter
We matter, all
I matter
You matter
We matter, allPowerful
PowerfulOh Oh, Oh Oh, Oh.Oh
Oh Oh, Oh Oh, Oh.Oh
Oh Oh, Oh Oh, Oh.OhPowerfulThere's so much strength in you and me
Powerful
A breathe away from victoryI matter
You matter
We matter, all
I matter
You matter
We matter, allPowerful
Powerful
