She Came From Ahead Of Her Time Lyrics - Aim The Heart

Wrong, blind and lost, we made war not peace 

Women and men, painful inequality 

But she knew what to do, how to open our eyes 

She knew the way our world had to find 

Out past the past that we hid behind 

She came from ahead of her time 

Marching the truth down our streets of lies 

To change our ways, to change our minds 

To get us to a future, fair and kind 

She came from ahead of her time 

She heard our old words, saw right where they led 

To lakes of tears, to rivers of blood that we shed 

So she blazed a new trail with sharp verb and noun 

Her message cut through in letters big and loud 

New words, her words, that we follow now 

She came from ahead of her time 

Marching the truth down our streets of lies 

To change our ways, to change our minds 

To get us to a future, fair and kind 

She came from ahead of her time 

Power surging from her speech 

People rising, we're not weak 

Sun baking, she stood the heat 

Progress marching on her feet 

She came from ahead of her time 

Marching the truth down our streets of lies 

To change our ways, to change our minds 

To get us to a future, fair and kind 

She came from ahead of her time 

She came from ahead of her time 

Marching the truth down our streets of lies 

To change our ways, to change our minds 

To get us to a future, fair and kind 

She came from ahead of her time 

We're getting closer to where she came from 

It's better now but there's more to come 

She's still guiding us from up above 

To the kind fair place she came from
