Lyrics
Description
[Hook - Chant]
Hold the light — we hold the light
Hold the light — we hold the light
(Hold the light)
[Verse 1]
Church bells hang heavy over mural walls,
Work-worn hands clap rhythm on the stoop and call.
Midnight corners whisper names like prayers,
Our mothers taught us how to stand and stare.
Bills and bruises map the backs of our coats,
But every scar's a scripture when hope notes.
We walk slow so the story keeps its weight,
Feet on red clay, heartbeat marks the date.
[Chorus — Thesis (repeat unchanged later)]
Hold the light — we keep it in our hands,
Turn the night to a map of our plans.
We sing for freedom, for soil and for kin,
This pulse is ours — the fight begins within.
[Verse 2]
From Selma sidewalks to Harlem storefronts,
We plant our flags where hope once slept and warmed.
Names carved on the cornerstones of struggle,
We lift our breath, we sharpen every muffle.
Black Power pulsing through the choir tonight,
Not just a slogan — it's bone, blood, and light.
March lines taught us how to bend, not break,
Stone to stone, we forge the paths we take.
[Chorus — same as above]
Hold the light — we keep it in our hands,
Turn the night to a map of our plans.
We sing for freedom, for soil and for kin,
This pulse is ours — the fight begins within.
[Bridge — Call & Response / Anthemic]
Leader: Hold the light!
Response: We hold the light!
Leader: Hold the light!
Response: We hold the light!
Leader: Hear the brass, church choir on the rise,
Response: We lift our voices, we claim the skies.
Leader: Say the names, put the maps in our palms,
Response: We carry memory, we carry calm.
[Variation Chorus — anthemic lift]
Hold the light — we hold it through the storm,
Turn the pain into a rhythm, keep it warm.
We shout for freedom, for earth and for kin,
This pulse is ours — the revolution starts within.
[Outro — Echo & Fade]
Hold the light — we hold the light (hold it now)
Hold the light — we hold the light (say it loud)
Work-worn hands, church bells, mural calls,
We hold the light — together we won't fall.
(Hold the light — we hold the light)
[Performance Notes]
70–80 BPM. Warm Rhodes under low brass, sparse kick/snare, gospel backing vocals on chorus, space for soulful ad-libs and live chants.
