"We Are" lyrics

"We Are"

We are the love of strangers that say a silent prayer
We are the love of mothers that taught our hearts to care
We are, we are
We are the patients and the sacrifice of yesterday
The silence in between the breaths of all the words we say
We are, we are

Ooh...

We are the proof of life, how our ancestors gave
We are the proof of love from the cradle to the grave
We are, we are
We are the best of struggles that we won't have to bear
We are the heir to all the prayers that float upon the air
We are, we are, we are

Ooh...

We are the seed of children that may never know our names
We are the peace of people that won’t bow their heads in shame
We are, we are
We walk upon the Earth, we knock on heaven's door
We are the life that teems along the deepest ocean floor
We are, we are, we are

Ooh...

The present, the past, the future days to come
The alpha, the omega, we are everything in one
We are, we are

Ooh, we are
