Powerful Songtext
von Empire Cast

People been talking about it
We won′t just stand here in silence
Can't stop the fire from rising
Rising, whoa, whoa

People, don′t you be afraid
So many innocents slain
This is an era for change
Change

And Malcolm's probably turning in his grave
Every shade was beautifully made


And powerful
There's so much strength in you and me
Powerful
A breath away from victory
I matter, you matter
We matter, all
I matter, you matter
We matter, all
Powerful
Powerful

I see a colorful future
Where skin don′t define any human
And stars are the only thing shooting
Shooting, oh

Mothers who bury their child
How can we sit there and hide?
Change comes when all take a stand now
Stand up, stand up

Martin′s speech still echoes in my brain
Every shade was beautifully made


And powerful
There's so much strength in you and me
Powerful
A breath away from victory
I matter, you matter
We matter, all
I matter, you matter
We matter, all
Powerful
Powerful

O-oh, o-oh, o-o-o-oh
O-oh, o-oh, o-o-o-oh
O-oh, o-oh, o-o-o-oh

Powerful
There′s so much strength in you and me
Powerful
A breath away from victory
I matter, you matter (I matter, whoa)
We matter, all
I matter, you matter
We matter, all
Powerful
Powerful
