For Those Who Can’t Speak

I see the glory of the Lord every time the sun rises

I hear the unheard screams of a broken heart

Because every day a son dies

27 million slaves but no plantation

27 million slaves, all different races

This is not the picture the Lord painted in Genesis

Silence is our enemy, our voices can end it

 

I have dreamed of a kingdom coming where

Evil drowns in mercy streams

I want to see those rivers of justice

So I use my voice for those who can’t speak

I will use my voice for those who can’t speak

 

Yeah, yeah, when it’s all said and done

Yeah, I pray that everything we said is done

I don’t want my son to say I was one of the ones

That watched 27 million suffer and never say

No, no, I won’t be that

I don’t deserve a mic if I ain’t got no feedback

Bring back every girl from the west to the east that

He crafted for His glory, not for making you green backs

I dream that

Every ounce of brokenness and disease that

Bring that to the cross, believe that He redeems that

Sees that type of world that my daughters can breathe in

Where the beautiful feet that go where the needs at

 

Come on, come on

 

Oh, none of us here are just a number

We all have a name like any other

There’s breath inside your lungs

And you are my brother

My God, when will we stand

Stand together

 

I want to be the kingdom coming where

Evil drowns in mercy streams

Oh, let me see those rivers of justice

So I use my voice for those who can’t speak

I will use my voice for those who can’t speak

I use my voice for those who can’t speak
