time for action!
we will not lie about
where we've been.
we will not hide
the truths we believe.
we will not
make any excuses.
we will challenge
until we get justice.
the time for action is now!
the time for action is now!
those of us who’ve
found a way will act,
while we still have a say.
the time for action is now!
for:
all our people who don't
advocate for themselves;
all our people imprisoned
still in nursing homes;
all the children,
whose voices are silenced;
and disabled children,
now denied the right to life.
the time for action
is now, now!
the time for action is now!
those of us who've
found a way will act,
while we still have a say.
the time for action is NOW!
so, to all of the people
who profit from our slavery;
all the people whose jobs
take our freedom away;
all the people who
have control over us:
we will keep fighting,
till you give back
our power to us.
the time for action
is now, now, now!
the time for action is now!
those of us who've
found a way will act
while we still have a say,
the time for action is NOW!
