"NOW" lyrics

[John Lewis speech]

We don't have another day
Another time, another place
And no longer can we wait
It's gotta be now

Our sons and daughters ripped away
Won't let their lives be in vain
If we ever want a change
It's gotta be now
Said, it's got to be now
It's gotta be now

Cause tomorrow isn't magic, no
It's just an empty space
Only filled with all the things
We're brave enough to do today
Make us strong to climb the mountain side
Give us faith to see our way
Hope to carry on
Give us love to make a change...

Cause tomorrow isn't magic, no
It's just an empty space
Only filled with all the things
We're brave enough to do today
Make us strong to climb the mountain side
Give us faith to see our way
Hope to carry on
Give us love to make a change

We don't have another life
Another chance another fight, no
Til' every woman has her rights
It's gotta be right now
Turn this darkness into light
And we want it right now
Take this wrong and make it right
And we want it right now

Say right now
(Now, now, right now)
Say right now
(Now, now)
We want it right now
(Want it right now)
Want it right now
(Now, now, right now)
Freedom right now, right now
(Now, now)
We want it right now
(Want it right now)
We want justice (now)
We want peace (now, right bow)
Not tomorrow (now)
Not next week (now, want it right now)
