[Interlude: TobyMac]
Listen
Lookin' out over this audience tonight, I just gotta tell you
Denver, you look beautiful in all your diversity tonight
I've always believed that there's richness in diversity
I've always believed that we're better together than separated
And I've always believed that we, the believers, we should be leading the way in what real love looks like
I gotta be honest with you
Sometimes I get online, I turn the news on the television
Man, sometimes I just gotta shut it off
'Cause it makes me…
It makes me start believin' that we can't make it together
But then I look up here on this stage and I see these people that I've travelled with, been runnin' with for 15 years
And look, all of us, different upbringings, different colors of skin
Listen, if we could live together and make it together on a tour bus, surely we could make it in a city or a state or a town or a nation
Truth is, there's no law the government can pass that brings us together
A song can't bring us together
Comin' together comes down to you and me
[Intro: Martin Luther King Jr.]
One day
This nation will rise up
Rise up
[Verse 1: TobyMac]
There's a million reasons to hesitate
With a history that's filled with hate
Have we ever been United States? I wonder (Oh, oh, oh)
So who can blame us for the doubt?
Forgive me if I think out loud
But when justice just won't come around, you wonder (Oh, oh, oh)
