​Here is the essence
Here is our essence
And with it our lessons
The essence here with you
Here with a presence
A constant presence
 
Here is the lessons
In words and letters
Here’s the lessons
In eyes and pressures
 
Yes, yes, yes
Here is the essence
Yes, yes, yes
Here is our presence
 
Here we are, side by side
We take the fire from the sky
And burn it with the fire from inside
We play the people
We are the people
 
Yes, yes, yes
Here is the essence
Yes, yes, yes
Here is our presence
 
Speak the words and the letters
Spread the words and our message
Feel the fire burning inside
Yes, we’ll never stop this rhythm and its message
 
Here we are all together
Here we are all together
 
People listen to all that’s inside
Let us stop the divide
Open up the lives and the lessons
 
Here we are, here we are
We are the people
We are life’s essence
