On this eve we solemnly declare In celebration with dance and drum, melody and voice We belong to the night We have been elsewhere, seen other things But none were good and pure Like the night And when others ask, “What is it about the night that consumes us so?” We are at a loss for words Apologizing for the cliché, we answer It’s a spiritual thing A communal thing A tribal thing: Free men and women Willing slaves only to the drum Far from a heathen rite We dance in unison before God To celebrate the life and mobility with which He has blessed us To display with pride That we unite despite our differences… We unite because of our differences And that we have not—and will never— Let the negativity of the world beset us Because we belong to the night We belong to the night The others; they’ll never understand As they blindly chase their symbols of greed and self-hatred Wage war upon one another; gloat over their small victories And wonder, alone in the night, why they feel So empty So discontented So unfulfilled Be ever wary, for they will try to Put you down; Turn you away; Convince you our way of life is hedonistic, unnatural, evil They will convince themselves the only things that bring us together Are drugs and sex And they will go through life Learning nothing; Changing nothing; Loving nothing; Meaning nothing But not us We remain strong; the last line of defense The disciples of dance; the partisans of unity Across the lines of faith and color, gender and orientation, belief and creed… Because we belong to the night We belong to the night
