"No, we're gonna hide, no fear from our eyes, love is a call to action."

After releasing a teaser last week on Twitter, Lin-Manuel Miranda has released the full version of his and Jennifer Lopez's latest collaboration.

All proceeds from their song "Love Make the World Go Round" will benefit the Hispanic Federation's Proyecto Somos Orlando, which provides “mental health services that are culturally competent and bilingual” for those directly affected by the tragic Pulse nightclub shootings in Orlando.

When Miranda posted the teaser last week, he didn't indicate when the full song would be dropped – but last night he gave us an hour's notice.

43 short minutes later, Miranda screenshot the song's iTunes page and shared it with his Twitter followers to announce that the song was live.

J. Lo announced the song's iTunes debut on her Twitter as well, along with a beautiful pride-themed graphic.

The song's lyrics discuss love and hate, finding the light in tragedy, how we should celebrate our pride and work to make a change.

A generation of innovators unable to patiently wait for change Cause change is what they've been afraid of Their malevolence can wait, raise the level of debate Celebrate, elevate, love, love Love make the world go round

The Today Show announced on Twitter that Lopez and Miranda will perform the song live as a tribute to #Orlando on their show, Monday, July 11 at 7:00 a.m.

"Love Make the World Go Round" is available on iTunes for $1.29. All proceeds will be donated to Hispanic Federation's Proyecto Somos Orlando.
