You Will Be Moved

Prince

Performed by Mavis Staples

Composed by Prince

U will be moved when the baby lets out his very first cry

U will be moved when U think of how hard he'll have 2 try

He'll grow up on an empty stomach, but he'll try his best 2 listen

2 the teacher readin' from a schoolbook with half the pages missin'

CHORUS:

Surely when the rain comes, U will be moved

La da da da da

See the video



U will be moved, and U will be when the baby makes all the grades

U will be moved, and U will be when they still don't hire him anyway

Moved by a system without one single guarantee

That an education is the answer and love will set us free



CHORUS



Oh, U will be moved when the rain comes, oh yes, U will be moved

When the streets overflow with angry souls, that's when U see the truth

When the pain that U've inflicted comes back on your door 2 roost (Back on your door 2 roost)

That's when U'll see the future (future), but U won't see U



CHORUS



U will be moved when the whip comes down on the back of one of your own

U will be moved when U look 4 compassion but U find U're all alone

Moved, and U will be when U are, that's when U'll know

That the bread U share is better than the blood that your deeds have caused 2 flow

(That the bread is better than the blood)



CHORUS



Hey, U will be moved when the rain comes, oh yes, U will be moved

When the streets all flow with angry souls, that's when U'll see the truth

When the pain that U've inflicted comes back on your door 2 roost (Back on your door 2 roost)

That's when U'll see the future (future), but U won't see U



I said surely when the rain comes, U will be moved

La da da da da (La da da da da)

See the video



Hey, surely, surely, surely (when the rain comes)

Surely y'all

Ow, la da da da da
