"Be It" lyrics
We have become the own shapers of our destiny as from today
The precedent has been set
The precedent has been set
I can feel the raindrops
I can feel the raindrops falling down
I can feel the pain stop
I can feel the pain stop now, I'm fine
One plus one equals two plus two
Equals four plus four equals (as from today)
One plus one equals two plus two
Equals four plus four equals (The precedent has been set)
(The precedent has been set)
To get it, to hold it, to want it, to need it
To claim it, to take it, to fake it till you make it
To love it, to breathe it, to need it, to feel it
To know it, to see it, to love it, to be it
I can feel the change come back (I feel the change come back)
I can feel the change come now over here
I can feel the payoff (I can feel the payoff)
I can feel the payoff, feel no fear
One plus one equals two plus two
Equals four plus four equals (as from today)
One plus one equals two plus two
Equals four plus four equals (The precedent has been set)
(The precedent has been set)
To get it, to hold it, to want it, to need it
To claim it, to take it, to fake it till you make it
To love it, to breathe it, to need it, to feel it
To know it, to see it, to love it, to be it
To love it, to be it
(The own shapers of our destiny) To love it, to be it
(As from today)
Your children look up and see giants, they look up to you
Generational power, there is magic in believing
You hold the keys to your own life, you hand them, hand them over
Two makes DNA, equals futures where root, purpose, power
One plus one equals two plus two
Equals four plus four equals (The precedent has been set, hey!)
(The precedent has been set, hey!)
One plus one equals two plus two
Equals four plus four equals (The precedent has been set, hey!)
(The precedent has been set)
To get it, to hold it, to want it, to need it
To claim it, to take it, to fake it till you make it
To love it, to breathe it, to need it, to feel it
To know it, to see it, to love it, to be it
To love it, to be it
To love it, to be it
To love it, to be it
To love it, to be it
To love it, to be it
Black British should not be a thing
It should be you, me, him, her, them and they
But people look to your color and country for your story
And assume they realize your inner glory
It is why some people call me the other Black girl's name
I shake my head and correct them nicely (To love it, to be it)
They do not learn that way, a shame (To love it, to be it)
The precedent has been set

One plus one equals two plus two
Equals four plus four equals (The precedent has been set)

To claim it, to take it, to fake it till you make it
To love it, to breathe it, to need it, to feel it
