lyrics

I have seen some wrongs to right and
I have justice in my sight;
These aren’t just suggestions!
History records –
I know that history rewards –
Those who ask big questions!

I see the world I came into ...
I’m askin’ “why?”,
Dreamin’ ’bout what could be ...
’Promise you’ll hear my cry!

Why must I be smarter?
Why must I be stronger?
Why must I work harder
Just to start the race?
Why am I pushed off the table?
Why’s my name not in the air?
I take nothin’ for granted,
But set a winning pace!

Sisters have been waiting,
Mothers have been praying
For justice to come now!
Though the sky looks threat’ning,
There’s a shining rainbow.
Just beyond the clouds!

I see the world I came into ...
I’m askin’ “why?”,
Dreamin’ ’bout what could be ...
’Promise you’ll hear my cry!

Why must I be smarter?
Why must I be stronger?
Why must I work harder
Just to start the race?
Why am I pushed off the table?
Why’s my name not in the air?
I take nothin’ for granted,
But set a winning pace!

Stand up for me and
I’ll stand up for you.
Stand up for those silenced
From saying #metoo.

Yes, we will be smarter!
Yes, we will be stronger!
Yes, we will work harder!
And we’ll win the race!
We will be ‘round the table!
Our names will be in the air!
We are making history and
Now we’ll take our place!
