Seeds

Brothers and sisters They may break your bones They can bury your body But only release your soul They may build you a prison Never cage your mind Insist you're nothing Never believe that lie You're too free, you're too proud Shine too bright, speak too loud For when they come to cut you down That's when you've gotta stand your ground When they bury our dreams We push them up through concrete We're growin' where they can't see These roots run deep Because we are seeds When we rise up No weapon can stop us No wall can block us No, hate can't stop love We are seeds Mothers and fathers Ancestors of this earth Bring us strength and wisdom Teach your children what they're worth Armed with truth and mercy They won't fall to anyone (Anyone) Standin' on our shoulders Reachin' for the sun When they bury our dreams We push them up through concrete We're growin' where they can't see These roots run deep Because we are seeds When we rise up No weapon can stop us No wall can block us No, hate can't stop love We are seeds We are seeds The battle is now And we are the army Said the battle is now We are the army The battle is now We are the army I said the battle is now It's now, it's now, right now When they bury our dreams We push them up through concrete We're growin' where they can't see These roots run deep Because we are seeds When we rise up No weapon can stop us No wall can block us No, hate can't stop love We are seeds (Yes, we are) We are seeds We are seeds
