"My People" lyrics

All rise
Despite
How they divide
When we unite
With our backs to the shadows
When we walk through the battle
Marching 'til the light falls
This is what we're made for

'Til morning
Stay strong
My brave souls
Can we carry on
With our backs to the shadows
And we don't see the battle
Marching 'til the light falls
This is why we sing

My people, my people
The restless, unequal
We pray for the day
We shine good on the evil

Down down they can't keep us
Down down they can't keep us
Down down they can't keep us
Lord this is for my people

Whoa-yo-yo-yo
Whoa-yo-yo
Whoa-yo-yo-yo
Whoa-yo-yo
Whoa-yo-yo-yo
Whoa-yo-yo
Whoa-yo-yo-yo
This is for my people

Fear us
'Cause we're fearless
Get louder
If they don't hear us
With our backs to the shadows
When we walk through the battle
Marching 'til the light falls
This is what we're made for

My people, my people
The restless, unequal
We pray for the day
We shine good on the evil

Down down they can't keep us
Down down they can't keep us
Down down they can't keep us
Lord this is for my people

Whoa-yo-yo-yo
Whoa-yo-yo
Whoa-yo-yo-yo
Whoa-yo-yo
Whoa-yo-yo-yo
Whoa-yo-yo
Whoa-yo-yo-yo
This is for my people

Whoa-yo-yo-yo (For my people)
Whoa-yo-yo
Whoa-yo-yo-yo (For my people, my people, yeah-yeah)
This is for my people

Whoa-yo-yo-yo (People)
Whoa-yo-yo (for my people)
Whoa-yo-yo-yo (oh Lord)(for my people)
People, my people (for my people)

Whoa-yo-yo-yo (for my people)
Whoa-yo-yo (for my people)
Whoa-yo-yo-yo (for my people)

This is for my people
