Unity
Unity
As the wooden doors of the church open
The girl enters the room
She sweeps up the air like a broom
My thoughts of her are now consumed
She is like a flower, you watch her bloom
She lived around the corner, down the street, the room next door
She had the perfect combination of grace and allure
Her presence made you feel so sure
Her leaving your side left you wanting more
There is no struggle when she clasps your hand
She helped me pray, she helped me stand
Why be away from her when you could stand with her
The glimmer of hope she brings gets so much bigger
You can see the change she brings to the world
She is a treasure, she is a pearl
She is strong, bold and fearless in the face of injustice
The one who stands for truth and everyone trusts this.
This leaves her standing because she refuses to sit back
To sit back is to lose track and risk the future being left to the trap
The glow in her smile
The change her voice brings
The warm feeling of love, let it ring
Where Black and White are no longer colors
We stand back to back with our sisters and brothers.
And only look at the colors God made
The red blood flowing through our veins.
It's funny how I feel as if I've known her all my life
But I've never actually met her in my life
The more we uncover, the more we see
Her blissful face
Her name is unity
Unity
Unite
Come together
Stronger we stand
Divided we fall
Freedom for all
Are there instructions?
Can we reach the possibilities of this word
What do we have to do?
Is there Anything we can do?
Have we done it already?
Has it already been achieved?
Does unity embody a single roll
Or the works of it can be a goal
Wrapped in a single statement or found within one person
These are the questions we must ask ourselves and keep working
Towards a world free of hate , full of love
But the more we waste time doom will become our fate
The uncertainty is frustrating
The reality is depressing
Hope we come together and learn a lesson
Or our babies will be born into ciaos, a world of disorder
People marched and fought so that my dream wouldn't be like Martin's: a speech for THEE order.
We must lock arms and stand together
To leave behind a world much better
Run with me
Stand by me
Be Beside me
Be free
We will all be one together
Unity
