Lyrics:
The revolution shall not be televised
As the liberation of mind
With equality of frame in oness
Pureness is the voice that speaks in anthems of truth
Determined
Inspiring
Soulful
Able deeper beneath the core
An essence breath marked for cleaner hope
Clearer melody of light
As word spreads life
Dedicated to all those who painted the portrait of disabled history from scholars to artists
Now we continue with the brush of light & paint our voices
Let the light shine
From deep beneath the soul
Let the voice speak
Be heard like a shining star
Strive on
You’re the light that shines x4
My soul’s anthem to survival struggle in the movement
Absorbed fractures of inconvenience that birthed pure resistance
Marching through the journey of reality by the roadside
A thousand whispers echoed
Tears a catalyst elevating growth against stains rooted in ignorance
Their eyes once shackled I behind the bars of self doubt as a child of humanity
Now the light within revolves equality yesterday’s footprints
Of them opened windows that conversated liberating dialect in its deepest form
Dedicated is an open mind sweeping torn pages dust
Blisters of tears that bled through the palms of these hands
Now the thousand voices become the currency of purpose
With the grip of needle weaving reason
Word will speak elevating sense in streams of ink
Letting this voice be heard let it be heard
Like an emblem of hope arresting every darkness
Embroided in weaker mindsets fear and hatred of what not underst
Let the light shine
From deep beneath the soul
Let the voice speak
Be heard like a shining star
Strive on
You’re the light that shines x4
Lets raise our hands to the great work the strengthenig disability movement
We’re thankful to those who kept the struggle alive overcoming challenges
Our voice is now heard today expressing our hearts and minds using krip-hop
History movers & shakers sculptured the landscape of the elevating path
Toiling with uncensored passion persistence immunisation of thought
From negative factors & elements puncturing the walls of oness
Existence let breathing torch lavitate this book authoring relaying steps to progression
Empowering hidden scriptures burned in silence turned alliance
Needle and thread of knowledge of the divine infinitely the weaving hand
Ambilical cord to pureness of hearts crotched to the face of true freedom
Heartbeat of expression insripted on the page of brotherhood
The movement hand in hand with ever revolving minds gleaming lights
Unshackling bondage tangled within shadows diecepting in
Articulating untamed tongued rebuke to unmanared ignorance
Light shining within the core of the inner soul
Thousand harmonies echoing armour a kiss of strength infinitely paints
A fountain overflowing in depth resistence the breath of oness
Let the light shine
From deep beneath the soul
Let the voice speak
Be heard like a shining star
Keep on
You’re the light that shines x4
God I thank you for the gift of life
Hear my voice as I sing I thank you
