Rhythm Nation (7" United Mix Edit) Lyrics

With music by our side
To break the color lines
Let's work together
To improve our way of life

Join voices in protest
To social injustice
A generation full of courage
Come forth with me

People of the world today
Are we looking for a better way of life?
We are a part of the rhythm nation

People of the world unite strength in numbers
We can get it right one time
We are a part of the rhythm nation

This is the test
No struggle no progress
Lend a hand to help
Your brother do his best

Things are getting worse
We have to make them better
It's time to give a damn
Let's work together, come on now

People of the world today
Are we looking for a better way of life?
We are a part of the rhythm nation

People of the world unite strength in numbers
We can get it right one time
We are a part of the rhythm nation

People of the world today
Are we looking for a better way of life?
We are a part of the rhythm nation

People of the world unite strength in numbers
We can get it right one time
We are a part of the rhythm nation

Rhythm nation
(Sing it people, say it different)
(Sing it if you want a better way of life)

Rhythm nation
(Sing it people, say it different)
(Sing it if you want a better way of life)

Everybody sing
People of the world today
Are we looking for a better way of life?
We are a part of the rhythm nation

People of the world unite strength in numbers
We can get it right one time
We are a part of the rhythm nation

People of the world, today
Are we looking for a better way of life?
We are a part of the rhythm nation

People of the world unite strength in numbers
We can get it right one time
We are a part of the rhythm nation

Rhythm nation, rhythm nation
Rhythm nation, rhythm nation
Rhythm nation, rhythm nation
Rhythm nation
