Make Them Hear You Lyrics
COAL HOUSE:
Go out and tell our story.
Let it echo far and wide.
Make them hear you.
Make them hear you.
How that justice was our battle and how justice was denied.
Make them hear you.
Make them hear you.
And say to those who blame us
For the way we chose to fight
That sometimes there are battles
That are more than black or white.
And I could not put down my sword
When justice was my right
Make them hear you
Make them hear you
Go out and tell our story
To your daughters and your sons.
Make them hear you.
Make them hear you.
And tell them in our struggles
We were not the only ones
Make them hear you.
Make them hear you.
Your sword can be a sermon
or the power of the pen
Teach every child to raise his voice
and then my brothers, then
Will justice be demanded
By ten million righteous men.
Make them hear you.
When they hear you
I'll be near you, again.
