" Unity " Emma Carter

#originalsong #ownbyemmacarter #lyrics Mmm, yeah... Oh-oh, mmm... Yeah, it’s time to breathe together... Mmm, yeah ​ We’re different threads in the same design Walking a border, crossing the line It’s more than a handshake, more than a word It’s the power of silence finally heard Ooh, let the walls come down We’re finding our common ground I see the world through a fractured lens Counting the costs while you’re making amends You grew up where the winter stays long I learned to survive where the sun is too strong But the hunger for purpose is a language we share Like the weight of the oxygen inside the air We’ve been looking at shadows, ignoring the light But the stars look the same in the middle of night The maps that they drew were written in ink But they didn't consider how we’d learn to think The echoes of ancestors call from the dust Telling us bridges are built out of trust It’s not about losing the soul of your tribe It’s about the frequency we all describe When the ego gets quiet, the spirit can speak And we find that the "other" isn't actually weak ​ We’re different threads in the same design Walking a border, crossing the line It’s more than a handshake, more than a word It’s the power of silence finally heard Ooh, let the walls come down We’re finding our common ground The river don’t care about the name of the town It just keeps on flowing till the barriers drown The root of the mountain is deep in the earth A million miles away from the place of your birth We’re a heartbeat away from a brand new day But we’re stuck in the mud of the things that we say Stop looking for exits and look for the door ’Cause nobody wins when we’re keeping the score Look They want us divided, they want us in boxes Feeding us lies while they're playing like foxes They profit from tension, they thrive on the hate While we're at the bottom just tempting our fate But wait—Look at the palm of your hand The same color blood as the rest of the land It’s a systemic cycle, a mental migration To keep us from forming a global vibration I’m done with the labels, I’m done with the 'isms We’re light passing through a billion prisms Break the encryption, change the description Unity isn’t a choice, it’s a mission! Pick up the pieces, stop the collision Unity requires a brand new vision One pulse, one heat, one rhythm, one street Till the circle of history is finally complete! ​ We’re different threads in the same design Walking a border, crossing the line It’s more than a handshake, more than a word It’s the power of silence finally heard Ooh, let the walls come down We’re finding our common ground ​ Mmm, yeah... We’re finding it now No more fences Mmm, yeah...
