Justice is mine now
Lyrics
[Intro]
[Verse]
Once there was a child,
With laughter in her eyes,
She danced in the daylight,
Innocent and wise.
But darkness wore her father’s face,
And crept in late at night,
He stole away her shining soul,
He swallowed all her light.
(Pre-Chorus – Call & Response)
They say time heals the pain (Time heals the pain)
But the scars still remain (Scars still remain)
He left my heart in chains (Heart is in chains)
Living through endless rain (Endless rain)
(Chorus – Sing Out)
This must stop right now (Right now)
You can’t break me down (Can’t break me down)
I rise from the ground (Rise from the ground)
My voice is loud (My voice is loud)
Justice is mine now (Mine now, mine now)
(Verse 2)
She learned to walk in silence,
With secrets locked inside,
She carried shame and shadows,
No safe place to hide.
Trust became a whisper,
Hope a distant ghost,
But still she kept on moving,
Holding on to hope.
(Pre-Chorus – Call & Response)
But pain turns to fire (Turns to fire)
Burning fierce and rising higher (Rising higher)
A love that won’t tire (Won’t tire)
Through storm and through mire (Through the mire)
(Chorus – Sing Out)
This must stop right now (Right now)
You can’t break me down (Can’t break me down)
I rise from the ground (Rise from the ground)
My voice is loud (My voice is loud)
Justice is mine now (Mine now, mine now)
(Bridge – Uplift, Harmony)
My pain turns to fire,
I won’t fall or fade,
From the dark I wade,
Strong and unafraid.
(Chorus – Final, Uplifting)
This must stop right now (Right now)
You can’t break me down (Can’t break me down)
I rise from the ground (Rise from the ground)
My voice is loud (My voice is loud)
Justice is mine now (Mine now, mine now)
Justice for me,
Let my soul be free,
(Justice for all)
Justice for all whose light was stolen,
Justice is mine now
Justice is mine now
Justice is mine now
Justice, let it be.
