It Takes All of Us

Founded on freedom but not everyone was free
We rang the bell and we declared our liberty
So many people for whom that bell did not ring
Many years later have we not learned anything

I think it's time to make a change

It takes all of us
Someday soon we must
Figure out a way to change
And we can learn to trust
One by one we must
Figure out a way to
Break the walls between us
Cause it takes all of us

We marched for civil rights in 1965
Since then I hate to say we haven't won the fight
We can live together color, race or creed
Let's keep working so that we fulfill his dream

I think it's time to make a change

It takes all of us
Someday soon we must
Figure out a way to change
And we can learn to trust
One by one we must
Figure out a way to
Break the walls between us
Cause it takes all of us

Our true beauty lies in our diversity
A fact so many people still refuse to see
If we all work together we could stand as one
Separately we are so weak
Together we can become strong

I think it's time to make a change

It takes all of us
Someday soon we must
Figure out a way to change
And we can learn to trust
One by one we must
Figure out a way to
Break the walls between us

It takes all of us
We're not strong enough
Separately but if we stand together
We can just
Make a change for us
We can make this world a better place for everyone
Cause it takes all of us
