Shake It

-I once heard someone say, “In complete darkness we are ALL the same.  It’s only out knowledge and wisdom that separates us.”  It’s time to SHAKE OFF prejudice and racism and work together to save this world for Jesus Christ.-

-Shake it, shake it-
-Shake it, shake it-
-Yeah-

•Shake it, shake it
The time has come to break it
Anyway you make it
I can’t take it, it’s goin’ down
-Goin’ down, baby-
People gather round for the man above
We’re goin’ down, down with hate and up with love

Shake it, shake it
The time has come to break it
Anyway you make it
I can’t take it, it’s goin’ down
People gather round for the man above
We’re goin’ down, down with hate and up with love•


Can you understand what’s the plan
Spread some love all across this land
What’s the caper, spread the truth
Read it in the papers about the youth

Get a little stressed, want to end it all
Life’s up and down just like a basketball
Ya can’t crumble and break from what somebody else thinks
Be tougher than that, tighten up your act

•Shake it, shake it
The time has come to break it
Anyway you make it
I can’t take it, it’s goin’ down
-Goin’ down, baby-
People gather round for the man above
We’re goin’ down, down with hate and up with love

Shake it, shake it
The time has come to break it
Anyway you make it
I can’t take it, it’s goin’ down
-Goin’ down, baby-
People gather round for the man above
We’re goin’ down, down with hate and up with love•


Let’s talk about it, before it’s too late
Don’t push it to the side so that it can hide
What’s done in the dark needs to come to light
A heart full of hate’s gonna waste a life

Represent for the positive, no prejudice is the way to live
You gotta free your mind, take your time
Put your hand in mine
Cause it’s a brand new day

•Shake it, shake it
The time has come to break it
Anyway you make it
I can’t take it, it’s goin’ down
-Goin’ down, baby-
People gather round for the man above
We’re goin’ down, down with hate and up with love

Shake it, shake it
The time has come to break it
Anyway you make it
I can’t take it, it’s goin’ down
-Goin’ down, baby-
People gather round for the man above
We’re goin’ down, down with hate and up with love•


-Hey, hey, hey-
-We’re goin’ down, baby-
-Yeah-
-We’re goin’ down, down-

•Shake it, shake it
The time has come to break it
Anyway you make it
It’s goin’ down
Can’t take it
I can’t take it
-Oh...-

•Shake it, shake it
The time has come to break it
Anyway you make it
I can’t take it, it’s goin’ down
-Goin’ down, baby-
People gather round for the man above
We’re goin’ down, down with hate and up with love

Shake it, shake it
The time has come to break it
Anyway you make it
-Gotta make it-
I can’t take it, it’s goin’ down
-Can’t take it-
People gather round for the man above
We’re goin’ down, down with hate and up with love•


Represent for the positive
-Down, down with hate and up with love-

Shake it, shake it
The time has come to break it
Anyway you make it
I can’t take it, it’s goin’ down
-Down-
People gather round for the man above
-Down-
We’re goin’ down, down with hate and up with love•
-Yeah-
