Our Time Now Lyrics

(Performed by Telly Leung (Sammy), Michael K. Lee (Frankie) & Katie Rose Clarke (Hannah). Music & Lyrics by Jay Kuo)

Sammy:
It's my time to serve
My strength to give
My blood to offer
So others might live
We'll win back our freedom
I know it somehow!
We must sacrifice
Pay any price!
It's my time
Our time now!

Mike Masaoka:
I, Mike Masaoka, do solemnly swear to support and defend the Constitution of the United States

Mike Masaoka and Sammy:
Against all enemies, foreign and domestic, that I shall bear true faith

Sammy:
And allegiance to the same, so help me God

Frankie:
They're tearing apart our families, turning us against each other!

Man:
This has got to stop!

Frankie:
It's our time to rise

Frankie and Men:
Stand up and fight
Stand strong together

Frankie:
Stand for what's right!
We've suffered in silence
But this we avow:
We'll even the score

Frankie and Men:
Be silent no more!
It's our time
Our time now!

Kei:
It's my time to live a life of my own
But that doesn't mean I will spend it alone
I won't be bound by what others allow!
My choices are mine alone to define
It's my time
My time now!

Sammy:
Promise me this:
You will look after my sister

Hannah:
I will promise you this
If you come back to me

Sammy:
I will come back, you'll see!

Sammy and Hannah:
Think of the day

Kei and Frankie:
Think of the day

Sammy, Hannah, Kei, and Frankie:
When the war is over!

Hannah and Kei:
Nothing will stand

Sammy and Frankie:
Nothing will stand

Sammy, Hannah, Kei, and Frankie:
In our way!
