[Verse 1] I came in with a grin and a grim little plan Palm in the air, got the city in my hand Shoes got dust from the riverfront walk Tongue got truth when I choose to talk I seen the rent eat a week like a wolf Seen a smile turn hard in the back of the room You want peace? Then look me in the eye We can build that bridge or we can let it die [Pre-Chorus] Step by step No looking back Hear that drum? Right on track [Chorus] Let’s join the march Let’s join the march We move as one We don’t fall apart Let’s join the march Let’s join the march Big hands, one road One fire in the dark (let’s join the march) [Verse 2] My uncle said, “Boy, keep your spine like steel” My mother said, “Never let a lie get a meal” So I cut through the fog with a clean sharp tongue Left a mark in the air when the night got young Gold on the wrist but the soul stay plain I dance with the doubt then I shake off the shame You can count my scars like coins in a jar But I still come home with the moon on my star [Pre-Chorus] Step by step No looking back Hear that drum? Right on track [Chorus] Let’s join the march Let’s join the march We move as one We don’t fall apart Let’s join the march Let’s join the march Big hands, one road One fire in the dark (let’s join the march) [Bridge] If the floor caves in, we make a new route If the truth gets thin, we call it out loud I got a pulse in the crowd, got a bone-deep sound And I’m not the kind to stand still now [Final Chorus] Let’s join the march Let’s join the march We move as one We don’t fall apart Let’s join the march Let’s join the march Big hands, one road One fire in the dark (let’s join the march)
