Lyrics
OUR VOICES MATTER
Verse1
If you want it to matter you have to make it matter
You can't stand by and hope for the best
The truth behind where our country stands
Every moment could be the test
You have to stand up and face the challenge
Everyone from east to west
A Lot can get done when you stand as one
We have to put whats different to rest
chorus
All our voices matter
together we can make a change
We can stand down and do nothing
And we get nothing in exchange
Or we can stand tall and heed the call
Eventually turning the page
stand as one to get things done
Nothings out of reach or range
Verse 2
If you want it to matter you must make it matter
There's nothing in life that comes free
Our makeups are all different
but there's more than what we see
The color of your blood is all the same
its red in you and me
And don't forget we were all made by one
This is who we were meant to be
chorus
All our voices matter
together we can make a change
We can stand down and do nothing
And we get nothing in exchange
Or we can stand tall and heed the call
Eventually turning the page
stand as one to get things done
Nothings out of reach or range
All our lives matter what we feel what we see what we do
We must rise up to make a difference it's all up to me and you
Or we can stand down and do nothing and we get nothing in exchange
Or we can stand tall and heed the call
Eventually turning the page
Our voices matter
