Jonathan Butler - Our Voices Matter Lyrics

Some people's lights have all been dimmed
Sit there and take it all in
Depleted, deleted
I say I am because you are
And we are all of us scarred
Not defeated, repleted

Stop that noise in our minds
Walk the divides
Our footprints merged underneath
As we sing

Our voices matter, voices matter
What matters to you, it matters to me
Our voices matter, they matter
We're all part of this great melody
Like tone and time
Our souls aligned

Always waiting to leave
We're always waiting to breathe
Unknowing, but I'm hoping
If we can go with the strides
We've made not just taking sides
Consoling, love flowing

The sirens blaze in our heads
While we look to the ground
But if we, if we look within
We won't go without in this house

Our voices matter, voices matter
What matters to you, it matters to me
Our voices matter, they matter
We're all part of this great melody
Like tone and time
Our souls aligned

I'll lean into discomfort
Yeah, we are all in this moment

Our voices matter, they matter
What matters to you, it matters to me
Our choices matter, they matter
The words that we sing and we speak
Like tone and time
Our souls, souls aligned

Our voices matter, voices matter, they matter
What matters to you, it matters to me
Our voices matter, they matter
We're all parts of this great melody
Like tone and time
Our souls aligned
