This has always been one of my favorite songs due to the fact that it's about unity, empowerment, brotherhood, sisterhood and overall self-mastery. This is the kind of music I encourage others to distribute and promote, music that can motivate and uplift more than one generation. I can still remember the days that I used to sit and watch this video before leaving for elementary school each morning, and listening to it today...I still get the same message with a greater meaning behind it. I encourage you to be conscious of the entertainment that you allow your children and yourself to be influenced by. #BeInspired!
