lyrics

Power of Love

is there a word i'm trying to express
are you the person i'm trying to impress
can i rid this fear from my mind
is there love on the other side
side

my words they come and they go
towards people and things that i know
go now far out of town and discover who's still around
around

but i know
where my heart goes
when i see you
hear your call

you are
still with me
in this city
build upon your grave

but now we've got angels there's more where that came from
our people are dying at rates so damn high
but we've got each other, we've got our brotherhood
sisters, lovers, and god in the sky

i have been feeling; these eyes have been bleeding
sweet water to purify lives that were sacrificed
for our creation for our liberation
to be in love with life

and yet
we've got a long road ahead
there are people still want us dead
dead

but i know
the power of love
and so
lets hold each other close
and dont
let go
