lyrics

Woke up in a dream and realized I am more
Than they told me - Kings and Queens
A pride – burning bright as a star
A thousand fire hoses couldn’t wash it away

Cause
We belong in the pages of history
We are stronger than anything they do, to put us down

Too many times
I hear the word “can’t” when life gets hard
But Grandma didn’t have a choice
Worked three jobs to give you a voice
So you could go out and do something outstanding
And make a change
It would be a shame to let all that hard work go to waste
No no no no

Cause
We belong in the pages of history
We are stronger than anything they do to put us down
We can stand up and take a drink from any cup
Because of our legacy - Our legacy
We will survive and we will thrive
We press on and on and on and on

We have just begun to live the dream
That all who came first fought for
But you can’t sit there and waste your time
We still got a ways to climb
and what we got didn’t get here on it’s own

U know
We belong in the pages of history
We are stronger than anything they do to put us down
We can stand up and take a drink from any cup
Because of our legacy
We make our story
