It Starts With Us

(专辑： Iconic: Message 4 America - 2017)

It starts with us
We are the ones
Who have to take the action
To make peaceful, non-violent change
Nobody is going to do it for us
We are the only ones
That can make the change
It starts with us
Everything that has ever changed with society
Has been done by people
We always have to have faith in ourselves
We can make the changes
When we have in other people too
So, understand that one person alone cannot do it
We all have to be together
We have to take collective action
And we have to organize
March isn't enough
Protest isn't enough
We have to organize
And we have to vote!
We have the power
But we have to act on that power
Because if we don't act on it
They will take it away from us
This is the way that we win
By working together
Keeping our moves together
Keeping our people together
Because the opposition is powerful
The opposition is greedy
But it doesn't matter how strong they are
We are the majority
The only time that we lose
Is when we we quit
We can't afford to quit
But we also can't afford to wait
The time is now
So we have to really believe in ourselves
We don't have to be invited
We have to invite ourselves, say:
"I am going to be part of the movement
I am the movement
Myself, my brothers and my sisters
All of us
Acting together
We are the movement"
And we have to remember that
It starts with us
