Lyrics Powerful (feat. Jussie Smollett and Alicia Keys) - Empire Cast feat. Jussie Smollett and Alicia Keys

People been talking about it
We won't just stand here in silence
Can't stop the fire from rising
Rising, oh
People don't you be afraid
So many innocents slain
This is an era for change
Change
And Malcolm's probably turning in his grave
Every shade was beautifully made
I'm powerful
There's so much strength in you and me
Powerful
A breath away from victory
I matter, you matter
We matter all
I matter, you matter
We matter all
Powerful, powerful
I see a colorful future
Where skin don't define any human
And stars are the only thing shooting
Shooting, oh
Mothers that bury their child
How can we sit there and hide
Change comes when all take a stand now
Stand up, stand up
Martin's speech still echoes in my brain
Every shade was beautifully made
I'm powerful
There's so much strength in you and me
Powerful
A breath away from victory
I matter, you matter
We matter all
I matter, you matter
We matter all
Powerful, powerful
Powerful
There's so much strength in you and me
Powerful
A breath away from victory
I matter, you matter
We matter all
I matter, you matter
We matter all
Powerful, powerful
