IT'S TIME FOR US
IT'S TIME FOR US
(T. Beechey)
We were put here on the earth for a reason, so our births
Were not a error or mistake, there's a difference we can make
They don't even have a clue who they are, let alone us too
Don't let them even have a chance --- it's time for us to advance
Don't let them have the final word
Cause we have yet to be heard
Don't let them ever take away
All the things we have to say
Don't let them steal away our pride
There's no need for us to hide
We're who we are, so let us show!
Don't ever let them...they don't know
They don't know or understand the ways of life or how they're planned
So who are they to say we're wrong? That we don't fit or belong?
We were granted life because somewhere there are faults and flaws
That only we can fix and solve --- it's time for us to get involved
Don't let them have the final word
Cause we have yet to be heard
Don't let them ever take away
All the things we have to say
Don't let them steal away our pride
There's no need for us to hide
We're who we are, so let us show!
Don't ever let them...they don't know
They've never walked in our shoes, so who are they that they can choose
Why we're here and what we mean and everything else in between?
When we were born, Someone knew who we were and what we'd do
We have dreams and we have goals --- it's time for us to take control
Don't let them have the final word
Cause we have yet to be heard
Don't let them ever take away
All the things we have to say
Don't let them steal away our pride
There's no need for us to hide
We're who we are, so let us show!
Don't ever let them...they don't know
There is a reason that we're here, at first, perhaps, it's not clear
But, over time, it's understood that we can do a lot of good
We can share and we can feel, we can help and we can heal
Both ourselves and fellow man, it's time to say, “Yes we can!”
Don't let them have the final word
Cause we have yet to be heard
Don't let them ever take away
All the things we have to say
Don't let them steal away our pride
There's no need for us to hide
We're who we are, so let us show!
Don't ever let them...they don't know
