lyrics

We are all one, and if we don’t know that today,
We are going to have to learn that lesson The hard, hard way
Hate wounds a loving heart.
What will it take to move you to march?

Chorus:
March on
Step by step together
March on
Advancing every day
It’s a movement, not a moment
One Human Family
When all people stand together,
We will know equality

Rap:
We march on with a purpose, with a fire in our soul.
Make a diff'rence, hope and change be our goal.
Love and peace and justice and truth.
Marching with fam'lies, with our elders, with our youth.
Building a beloved community,
our diversity is strength, there is power in our unity.
Color, gender, ethnicity,
we respect them all with sanity, a part of our humanity.
In sisterhood, brotherhood, personhood,
Marchin' our feet up the street thru the neighborhood.
Movin' in step, showin' support for the com-mon good.
Come! Feel our vitality. Come be a witness.
Join in our universality.
Make your mission the human condition. Ya see?
When all people stand together We will know equality.
