Patrice - We Are the Future in the Present Lyrics

Forever and always we know who we are
The blood in my veins came from afar
What will you do when I'm walking?
What if I'm done with the talking?
What will you do?
What will you do?

We are the future in the present
And though the past it tried to kill us yet we made it
We are the future in the present
And though the past it tried to kill us yet we made it

And we do it with the class and style
Do it with the class and style
Do it they do do
Do it they do do

We cut and we clear, we sign and we seal
Not playing the game with the cost that you deal
What would you do when we're walking?
What if we're done with the talking?
What would you do?
What would you do?

We are the future in the present
And though the past it tried to kill us yet we made it
We are the future in the present
And though the past it tried to kill us yet we made it

And we do it with the class and style
Do it with the class and style
Do it they do do
Do it they do do

We're real queens and kings
We are why the caged birds sings
Things don't happen to us we happen to things
Happening, happening, we are happening
Dap-dap-dapper when we turn up the melanin

We're real queens and kings
We are why the caged birds sings
Things don't happen to us we happen to things
Happening, happening, we are happening
Dap-dap-dapper when we turn up the melanin

Fufu pounded yam
Curves, curves, curves

We are the future in the present
And all the past they tried to kill us yet we made it
We are the future in the present
And all the past they tried to kill us yet we made it
We are the future
