Lyrics

[Intro: Martin Luther King Jr.] Let us rise up tonight with a greater readiness Let us stand with a greater determination And let us move on in these powerful days These days of challenge To make America what it ought to be We have the opportunity to make America a better nation [Verse 1: Jason Taylor] Day by day, workin harder Trying to pay, for tomorrow We've been down, yet we rise Just like the sun, across the sky [Pre-Chorus: Jason Taylor] And if you wanna see a brighter day Throw 'em up, let me hear you say [Chorus: Jason Taylor] We're gonna be alright (Be alright) Be alright (Be alright) I can see the light (See the light) Shinning bright (Shinning bright) Yeah, oh yeah We're gonna be alright Alright [Verse 2: Jason Taylor] Where is the hope, where is the peace? Where is the love? Blood on the streets Spiritual warfare, keep on praying Come together, American nation Racial divider, planets crying Black men dying, mothers tired Man versus man, none the winner Every hand: build, defend her Love pursuers (Stand up) And entrepreneurs (Stand up) And every teacher, every preacher Freedom fighters, every uniter [Pre-Chorus: Jason Taylor] And if you wanna see a brighter day Throw 'em up, let me hear you say [Chorus: Jason Taylor] We're gonna be alright (Be alright) Be alright (Be alright) I can see the light (See the light) Shinning bright (Shinning bright) Though it looks rough I know We're gonna be alright Yes, we are Yes, we are Yes, we are [Bridge: Jason Taylor] We're gonna be standing, waiting Watching for the change to come now We're gonna be standing, waiting Watching for the change to come now We're gonna be standing, waiting Watching for the change to come now (We're gonna be freer) We're gonna be standing, waiting Watching for the change to come now (Yeah) We're gonna be standing, waiting (For you and me) Watching for the change to come now (Anybody wanna be freer?)
