lyrics
We Can All Be Free
By Bayou City Comeback Chorus featuring Lilly Aviana and Sugar Joiko
Music and Lyrics By Kam Franklin
Verse 1
Up of above the stars, lifetimes away
I believe that there are ancestors proud watching everyday
Like, look how far we’ve come
Still more work to get done
But I know change is on the way yes
Chorus
I can see it (love)
Better days are on the way
I see it (love)
Hate won’t lock us down today, believe it (love)
Love will always find away believe it
For us, for us, for us
Verse 2
There’s a place that we, we belong
Where coming as you are is never seen as wrong
Where the love doesn’t run out
And kindness is what comes out our mouths
Chorus
I can see it (love)
Better days are on the way
I see it (love)
Hate won’t lock us down today, believe it (love)
Love will always find away for us
For us, for us, for us
