My People

How many times we're gonna meet?
I know myself
Isn't it time to let you leave?

Feel all the fears I kinda need
Oh I can tell
It's like the beat got onto me

I can't keep my body still
When I hear the rhythms
From all those black and white souls swaying together
I forgot the world and its spin
My problems waiting
'Till I'm done with this waltz of feeling

They don't know who we are
They don't know why we're here for
They don't know my people
But they keep judging us
They don't know who we are
They don't know what we stand for
They don't see they make us stronger
We never back down

They don't know who we are
They don't know why we're here for
They don't know my people
But they keep judging us
They don't know who we are
They don't know what we stand for
They don't see they make us stronger
We never back down

I could be drowning in the love
Or ride that wave
'Cause there is so much to be done

We got the power in our blood
To make that change
Only our passion is enough

We can't keep our body still, when we hear the rhythms
From all those black and white souls swaying together
We forgot the world and its spin
Our problem's waiting
'Till we're done with this waltz of feeling

They don't know who we are
They don't know why we're here for
They don't know my people
But they keep judging us
They don't know who we are
They don't know what we stand for
They don't see they make us stronger
We never back down

They don't know who we are
They don't know why we're here for
They don't know my people
But they keep judging us
They don't know who we are
They don't know what we stand for
They don't see they make us stronger
We never back down

They don't know who we are
They don't know why we're here for
They don't know my people
But they keep judging us
They don't know who we are
They don't know what we stand for
They don't see they make us stronger
We never back down

They don't know who we are
They don't know why we're here for
They don't know my people
But they keep judging us
They don't know who we are
They don't know what we stand for
They don't see they make us stronger
We never back down

They don't know who we are
They don't know why we're here for
They don't know my people
But they keep judging us
They don't know who we are
They don't know what we stand for
They don't see they make us stronger
We never back down
