LYRICS ... We All Bleed Red (Steady For Justice)
CHORUS Steady for justice Ready for peace Steady for justice United we are
Steady for justice Ready for peace We all bleed red Although we're all unique Why is it so wrong to Help a man get on his feet Everybody needs shelter Everyone must eat Liberal, conservative, independent Immigrant and refugee
While we're steady for justice Ready for peace
CHORUS
Steady for justice Ready for peace It's all been said Without being oblique The laws of the universe Are nice and neat To lift people up from the bottom of the heap Takes more than 140 characters Of a tweet or policies that Prey upon the poor and week This is not fake news only real I speak
Saying we're ready for justice Ready for peace CHORUS
Steady for justice Ready for peace Every word you say is being critiqued Nominated, inaugurated You've given a speech Many people are saying resign or impeach Women around the world Take to the street cause justice Sits high and firmly in her seat At the end of the day Still I beseech
Get up, stand up! Stand up on your feet Electoral victory Popular defeat Campaign promises are obsolete Why not Stand up for justice Stand up for world peace
CHORUS
Steady for justice Ready for peace How many children Are there to teach To lend to their natural mystique Those with eyes to see Is who I'm trying to reach Those with ears to hear Let me repeat We all bleed red But we're all unique White, black, brown, red, yellow Purple or peach
We're all ready for justice Ready for peace
CHORUS Equal rights and justice
