Right Sized

I remembered it before I saw it
 With nothing there before my eyes
 All the battles that were won before me
 I found you when I realized
 I had held onto a quiet anchor
 The weight of every compromise
 On the shoulders of the ones before me
 I wage into another life
 No confusion
 No illusion
 No change of mind
 There within me
 From another time
 Let them break our backs on walls of despair
 Rising up I'll meet you there
 Every struggle
 Every generation
 The fight to keep a dream alive
 I can see us in a line abiding
 I will not fade or shrink in size
 No confusion
 No illusion
 No change of mind
 There within me
 From another time
 Let them break our backs on walls of despair
 Rising up I'll meet you there
 These roots they run deep
 These roots they run deep
 These roots they run deep
 These roots they run deep
