Moon Meets the Sun |
When the day is done |
The moon meets the sun |
We’ll be dancing |
When the day is done |
The moon meets the sun |
We’ll be dancing |
You put the shackles on our feet |
But we’re dancing |
You steal our very tongue |
But we’re dancing |
Brown girl in the ring |
Raise your voice and sing |
Sing us solace |
Sing us freedom |
Hold us steady |
Keep us breathing |
We’ll endure this |
You can’t stop us |
And we’re dancing |
You steal our children |
But we’re dancing |
You make us hate our very skin |
But we’re dancing |
We’re your sons |
We’re your daughters |
But you sell us |
Down the river |
May the God |
That you gave us |
Forgive you |
Your trespasses |
We’re survivors |
You can’t stop us |
And we’re dancing |
When the day is done |
The moon meets the sun |
We’ll be dancing |
When the day is done |
The moon meets the sun |
We’ll be dancing |
Like the rabbit |
We won’t bend to your will |
Like the spider |
The smallest will still prevail |
The stories of our elders |
We find comfort in these |
We smile to the sky |
We move to stay alive |
And we’re dancing |
You steal our work for your profit |
But we’re dancing |
You think our home we have forgotten |
But we’re dancing |
Step into the circle |
Step into the ring |
Raise your voice and sing |
Sing freedom |
Sing freedom |
You can’t stop us now |
You can’t keep us down |
We’ll be dancing |
When the day is done |
The moon meets the sun |
We’ll be dancing |
When the day is done |
The moon meets the sun |
We’ll be dancing |
You can’t stop us now (We'll be dancing) |
You can’t keep us down (We'll be dancing) |
You can’t stop us now (We'll be dancing) |
You can’t keep us down (We'll be dancing) |
You can’t stop us now (We'll be dancing) |
You can’t keep us down (We'll be dancing) |
You can’t stop us now |
You can’t keep us down |
You can’t stop us now (We'll be dancing) |
You can’t keep us down (We'll be dancing) |
You can’t stop us now (We'll be dancing) |
You can’t keep us down (We'll be dancing) |
You can’t keep us down (We'll be dancing) |
You can’t keep us down (We'll be dancing) |
You can’t keep us down (We'll be dancing) |
