Powerful Lyrics - Empire Cast

People been talking about it 

We won't just stand here in silence 

Can't stop the fire from rising 

Rising, oh 

People don't you be afraid 

So many innocents slain 

This is an era for change 

Change 

And Malcolm's probably turning in his grave 

Every shade was beautifully made

I'm powerful 

There's so much strength in you and me 

Powerful 

A breath away from victory 

I matter, you matter 

We matter all 

I matter, you matter 

We matter all 

Powerful, powerful 

I see a colorful future 

Where skin don't define any human 

And stars are the only thing shooting 

Shooting, oh 

Mothers that bury their child 

How can we sit there and hide 

Change comes when all take a stand now 

Stand up, stand up

Martin's speech still echoes in my brain 

Every shade was beautifully made 

I'm powerful 

There's so much strength in you and me 

Powerful 

A breath away from victory 

I matter, you matter 

We matter all 

I matter, you matter 

We matter all 

Powerful, powerful 

Powerful 

There's so much strength in you and me 

Powerful 

A breath away from victory 

I matter, you matter 

We matter all 

I matter, you matter 

We matter all 

Powerful, powerful
