lyrics

Young Hadiya performed for the President
A week later, she was gunned down
We wear orange to remember her
In Chicago, in every town
Pulse Orlando was the place to be out dancing with friends
Sandy Hook had a school where children walked in innocence
So many killed by one mad hand on a gun
We remember, we remember, we remember each one
Did you hear about it, did you cry about it
Will you join us, every one?

CHORUS :
We shall be seen, We shall be seen
We shine so bright we light up everything
We raise our voices, We shall be heard
As we speak truth to power in every town, we light up this world
We shall be seen

More than 90 Americans die each day
By a bullet from a gun
8 of them are children
Taken from us, they are gone
And hundreds more shot daily, by their own hand or by minds deranged
In Tucson, Charleston, Las Vegas, everywhere
The survivors are never the same
Did you read about it, do you care about it
Will you stand up and refuse to lose another one?

CHORUS

BRIDGE: We are parents, children, siblings, we are loved ones, friends too
We're not headlines or statistics, we’ve got so much work to do
We are teachers singers carpenters couch potatoes activists
And we won’t stop till we end this senseless gun violence

FINAL CHORUS:
We shall be seen, we shall be seen
We shine so bright we light up everything
We raise our voices, we shall be heard
As we speak truth to power in every town, we light up this world
We are just like the sun as it changes dark to dawn
We are the change that we demand to see, together you and me
We shall be seen, We shall be seen, We shall be seen, We shall be seen (x3)
We shall be seen
