Make Them Hear You (1996) Lyrics by Brian Stokes Mitchell

Songs from Ragtime: The Musical

[COALHOUSE]
Go out and tell our story
Let it echo far and wide
Make them hear you
Make them hear you
How justice was our battle
And how justice was denied
Make them hear you
Make them hear you
And say to those who blame us
For the way we chose to fight
That sometimes there are battles
Which are more than black or white
And I could not put down my sword
When justice was my right
Make them hear you
Make them hеar you
My path may lead to heaven or hеll
And God will say what's best
But one thing he will never say
Is that I went quietly to my rest
Go out and tell our story
To your daughters and your sons
Make them hear you
Make them hear you
And tell them, in our struggle
We were not the only ones
Make them hear you
Make them hear you
Proclaim it from your pulpit
In your classroom, with your pen
Teach every child to raise his voice
And then, my brothers, then
Will justice be demanded
By ten million righteous men
Make them hear you
When they hear you
I'll be near you
Again
