Hive Open Mic Week #208 / POWERFUL - Empire cast (Cover by Sessy)

▶️ Watch on 3Speak


It's with great pleasure that i welcome you to the Hive Open Mic Week #208

Hi beautiful lovers of music🎵❤🎧
I'm your girl @sessy, and I'm extremely overjoyed to be here once again as usual.

Our theme for this week is HIVE, and in reference to that, I'll be singing a song from the movie Empire and the song titled POWERFUL by Empire Cast feat. Jussie Smollett and Alicia Keys.

I actually chose this song because Hive is like an Empire, a home filled with love and support, a community that accommodates all and doesn't discriminate.

The movie Empire is a powerful family drama about the head of a music empire whose three sons and ex-wife all battle for his throne.

And the song is about standing up for what is right and taking a stand against injustice. It talks about the importance of not being silent and not hiding when there is a change needed. They mentioned the need for everyone to come together and make a difference.

Overall, the song conveys a message of empowerment and unity, it talks about how skin doesn't define any human.

And just as we do here in Hive, we come together to make a difference, there's love, peace and harmony in the Hive community, we do not discriminate here, each and every human can make use of their voice and be heard here, irrespective of where they come from or their skin color. Everyone is welcomed with love and in unity we all stand.

The movie Empire is a great movie and you should see it if you're yet to. They sang so many beautiful songs in it, since it's more like a musical movie, but amongst all, POWERFUL is my favorite song. It was Performed by Jussie Smollett and Alicia Keys, also known as Jamal Lyon and Sky Summers in the Empire Series.

I hope you watch and enjoy my rendition as much as I did.





SONG LYRICS

(performed by Jussie Smollett & Alicia Keys)

[Jussie Smollett:]
People been talking about it
We won't just stand here in silence
Can't stop the fire from rising, rising
Ooh, ooh

[Alicia Keys:]
People don't you be afraid
So many innocents slain
This is an era for change, change

[Jussie Smollett:]
Malcolm's probably turning in his grave

[Alicia Keys:]
Every shade was beautifully made

[Alicia Keys & Jussie Smollett:]
And powerful
There's so much strength in you and me
Powerful
A breath away from victory
I matter, you matter, we matter all
I matter, you matter, we matter all
Powerful
Powerful

[Alicia Keys:]
I see a colourful future
Where skin don't define any human
And stars are the only thing shooting, shooting
Ooh, ooh

[Jussie Smollett:]
Mothers who bury their child
How can we sit there and hide?
Change comes when all take a stand now
Stand up
Stand up

[Jussie Smollett:]
Martin's speech still echoes in my brain

[Alicia Keys:]
Every shade was beautifully made

[Alicia Keys & Jussie Smollett:]
And powerful
There's so much strength in you and me
Powerful
A breath away from victory
I matter, you matter, we matter all
I matter, you matter, we matter all
Powerful
Powerful

Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh

[Alicia Keys & Jussie Smollett:]
Powerful

[Alicia Keys:]
There's so much strength in you and me
Powerful
A breath away from victory

[Alicia Keys & Jussie Smollett:]
I matter, you matter, we matter all
I matter, you matter, we matter all
Powerful
Powerful
