"So Mercedes, You had something to share?" Asked Mr. Schue walking in.
"Yes, Mr. Schue." Mercedes replied getting upfront.
"As you all know it is Black History month and I've prepared a song to dedicate to my people." She announced. A Smooth Piano began the song. Rachel, Kurt and Blaine instantly reconized it. A microphone and Stand was placed in front of her. Mercedes voice came out strong in the beganning.
There's a light
In the darkness
Though the night
Is black as my skin
There's a light
Burning bright
Showing me the way
But i know where i've been
There's a cry (oooooh)
In the distance
It's a voice
That comes from deep within (Oooh Yeah)
There's a cry
Asking why
I pray the answer's up ahead
yeah
'Cause i know where i've been
There's a road
We've been travelin'
Lost so many on the way
But the riches
Will be plenty
Worth the price
The price we had to pay
There's a dream (Dream)
In the future (Oooh)
There's a struggle
That we have yet to win
And there's pride (Oooh)
In my heart
'Cause i know
Where i'm going
Yes I do !
And i know where i've been
Yeah
Mercedes noticed that the new directions started to sing along with her. She smiled.
There's a road (There's a road)
We must travel (We must travel)
There's a promise (There is a promise)
We must make (That we must make)
But the riches (oh but the riches)
Will be plenty (The riches will be plenty)
Worth the risk (Worth the risk)
And chances that we take (and the chances that we)
There's a dream
Yeah yey yeah
In the future
There's a struggle
That we have yet to win
Use that pride
In our hearts
To lift us up
Until tomorrow
'Cause just to sit still
Would be a sin
(New Directions)
I know it, i know it
I know where i'm going
(Mercedes)
Lord knows i know..
Where i've been
(Mercedes & New Directions)
Oh! When we win,
I'll give thanks to my god
'Cause i know where i've been
The Club Applauded.
"Wow, Mercedes, That was Beautiful." Mr. Schue said sounding Amazed.
"Thank you." Mercedes said.
