Together We Are WE

This song calls on people to make a choice—to opt for a society in which individuals live together peacefully and in harmony. Lyrics: [Verse 1] We stand at the crossroad, the time is at hand The cold winds of distance are sweeping the land The choice we are making is heavy and real To tear ourselves down, or to join and to heal? Connection won't fall from the sky up above We’ve got to step forward and choose it in love. [Pre-Chorus] Lay down your heavy shield, let it all go Share the deep truth and the sorrows you know Open your spirit and invite them all in Listen with grace, let the healing begin. [Chorus] No more of the "us," no more of the "them" Together we are WE, let the new day begin! An open wide heart, standing side by our side With a bridge of our words, washing over the tide We are the future, we stand on this ground Together we are WE, let the freedom resound! [Verse 2] We share the old stories, the dark of the past The chains of our history, shadows they cast A pain that we carry, a truth that binds tight But looking with honesty brings us the light. No trenches of anger, no pointing of blame We’re building a future that calls out our name. [Pre-Chorus] Walk in the shoes of a differing soul Hear the new voices that make us all whole Focus on all of the ground that we share Lay down the anger, and handle with care. [Chorus] No more of the "us," no more of the "them" Together we are WE, let the new day begin! An open wide heart, standing side by our side With a bridge of our words, washing over the tide We are the future, we stand on this ground Together we are WE, let the freedom resound! [Chorus] No more of the "us," no more of the "them" Together we are WE, let the new day begin! An open wide heart, standing side by our side With a bridge of our words, washing over the tide We are the future, we stand on this ground Together we are WE, let the freedom resound! [Bridge] Choose to be open, and see what we share! The differences fade when the love is right there! Make room for the voices we need to let through In reaching to others, you find the real you. [Outro] Here at the crossroad... we join up our hands. No us. No them. Just we. Together. A conscious choice. Together... we are WE!
