Love and Unity

You know I think people been doing too much talking
Talking about right, wrong, war, peace
But what I'm talking about is unity
Unity under this groove
Let me show you
Everybody come together now
Cause this groove that we are puttin' down
Ain’t about to wait for you to decide
The why, the what, the how
Step on the floor and settle in
Let this beat be your medicine
No this ain’t a debate, listen to what we say
We’re your teachers here’s your lesson
People get up and clap your hands
Don’t you see
What we’re spreading across this land
Is love and unity
Everyday people talk with their fingers
Stinging words who’s poison seems to linger
Drawing lines and searching for the ringer
To shut it all down
I’ve been lookin’ round, I’ve been gettin’ down
I’ve been hearin’ sounds of people wonderin’ what to do
But when I’m with my crew
I can feel the love, I’m light as a dove
I gotta give it up to everyone who's livin’ proof
This world is more that just
Talkin’ round and round while feelin’ crazy
Callin’ for action while being lazy
I’d rather just dance here with my baby
To this funky sound
People get up and clap your hands
Don’t you see
What we’re spreading across this land
Is love and unity
When you step on this floor
Differences get ignored
So give yourself over to this groove
Got to get on down
Tell em what it is
What we're spreading across this land
Is love and unity
Oh got to come together
People get up and clap your hands
Don’t you see
What we’re spreading across this land
Is love and unity
So there it is
We gotta come together
Cause we gotta forget about what we hate
Come all together on what we love

We Got to Stand

What’d you say?
Oh lord I cannot believe
Every word that comes out of your mouth sounds like hate
Well tell me please
Do you want to be alone
Or will you stand with me and for freedom will you sing
Let me hear you now
Sing it for your brother
Sing it for your father
Your sister and your mother
What’d you say?
That it’s not your place to act
And someone else will do it better if we wait
Well we don’t have time
We’ve got to stand for those who can’t
A voice crying for the weak, singing for those who can’t speak
Let me hear you now
Sing it for your brother
Sing it for your mother now
Your sister and your father
Gotta sing it now
A voice crying for the weak
For those who can't speak
We got to stand
Each man and woman of the land
We got to live for this life again
We got to stand
Each man and woman of the land
We got to live for this life again
Sing it for your mother
Sing it for your father now
Your sister and your brother
Oh sing for one another
Got to sing it now
We got to stand
Each man and woman of the land
We got to live for this life again
We got to stand
Each man and woman of the land
We got to live for this life again
