Dance All Nightby Kenneth MorrisonOn that nightThey loved Like no one was watching And they dancedLike no one was watching Like God was a DJLike hallelujahs were at the bending of their hipsAs if their twists, their dips, their wavesWere praiseThey prayed for these days, for these nights For the freedom to dance to their own pulse Their souls found sacred sanctuary on dance floors Do you know what it’s like to dance until you can’t dance any more This is for the day when hate bangs at your door Dance like you know the whole world is watching Move until your movements become a movement Hold hands like you know the whole world is watching Love like you know the whole world is watching From this day forward dance on purpose, live on purpose Until your body falls in love with its own pulseIn the face of hate, dance When death bangs on your door, dance In the sound of homophobic pastor chatter, danceWhen your friends don’t understand, danceWhen your parents don’t like how you dance, dance When your job wants you to move a little less, dance In the face of police brutality, dance In the face of oppression, danceIn the face of injustice, danceDance to whatever you want Dance to the Tango, dance to Reggae, dance to Beyonce, dance to rap, rock or pop And don’t stop Dance to protest, dance to candlelight vigils, dance to marches, dance to sit-ins, dance to walk outs, dance to voting polls But never stand still, never be silent, never lean against the wall, never sit out Always dance When death is at your front door find the courage to dance until you can’t dance any moreFor those who still can dance Dance for those who can’tToday we take time to dance06/13/2016, Candlelight Vigil at Ynot Lot  -- source link
