Lyrics

Intro

Oh oh

Gather round now

Oh oh

Chorus

Call the family near

Love can wash away every fear

Hold your head up high

Love can heal the earth beneath this sky

Stand up for your rights

Hold your head up high

Love can heal the earth beneath this sky

Verse 1

Small seeds

Planting every green leaf for the needs

Look around

Pick a brother up from the hard ground

Lend a hand

Be a helper to the man who cannot stand

Give what you take

Pre-Chorus

Legalize it now

Break the iron plow

Shatter every chain

Wipe away the stain

Chorus

Call the family near

Love can wash away every fear

Hold your head up high

Love can heal the earth beneath this sky

Stand up for your rights

Hold your head up high

Love can heal the earth beneath this sky

Verse 2

No lies

Looking at the world through honest eyes

Bitter tongues

Fill with holy spirit inside the lungs

I see

I know

I feel

The power making all the spirits free

Pre-Chorus

Legalize it now

Break the iron plow

Shatter every chain

Wipe away the stain

Chorus

Call the family near

Love can wash away every fear

Hold your head up high

Love can heal the earth beneath this sky

Stand up for your rights

Hold your head up high

Love can heal the earth beneath this sky

Bridge

They sell you the fake

They give what they take

They lie for the sake of the gold

Do not let your spirit be sold

Keep your spirit bold

Chorus

Call the family near

Love can wash away every fear

Hold your head up high

Love can heal the earth beneath this sky

Stand up for your rights

Hold your head up high

Love can heal the earth beneath this sky

Outro

One love, one heart beating slow

Roots run deeper than the shadow

We rise again, voices flow

Plant the truth and let it grow

Bound by hope, never part

Fire keeps burning in the dark

Raise your hands, lift the veil

Together strong, we will prevail
