Why not be…? Be who you needed See what they cannot see Be who they need, who we need you to be I had a picture Of what I wanted to see About the future And what I thought it could be I wasn’t dreaming Then again maybe I should be About a future Where everybody can be seen Cause we’re down But not out Yeah we’re down but not out If I’m here Why not me? Why not be? be who you needed See what they cannot see Be who they need, who we need you to be Dream what won’t dream Scream when they will not screaM Be who they need who we need you to be I can see you clearly Your needs go deeper than you let on Wish love and encouragement were sure enough to bet on Tenderness, a shoulder to lay to your head on If they ain’t know that was your birthright, they were dead wrong Your days have been clouded with pain and doubt, no debate about it I’m amazed you found a route to safety from a place that’s powerless Dreaming of all the things you wished that they could give You found a secret path to more enriching ways to live Such an innovative kid I bow to your brilliance I vow to hold it down and stick around for your healing I’ll validate your feelings, respond instead of react The love we always needed, maybe I could finally be that Cause we’re down But not out Yeah we’re down but not out If I’m here Why not me? Why not be? Be who you needed See what they cannot see Be who they need, who we need you to be Dream what won’t dream Scream when they will not scream Be who they need who we need you to be

Amplify (Lyrics Video) [feat. Aubrey Noronha & Farnell Newton)

Amplify is a soulful, smouldering appeal for Black voices to be heard, now and always. It’s more important now than ever to listen to one another. It’s time to amplify marginalized voices so we can move toward the justice and equality BIPOC have always asked for, and have frequently been denied.
