about

An anthem for the oppressed peoples of the earth.

lyrics

See these cracks on my feet they can show you the terrain of my life, yeah
And feel the rough on my hands understand that I’m willing to fight for what’s right and true
So come on y’all
So here’s what we gotta do

We’ve got to stand up
For what we know to be
And don’t you confuse the truth or fact
for what you believe.
We’ve got to hold on
Cause to rule this land some must deceive
They tried to wipe us from this earth,
Yet still we breathe

If we know that life is love
Why do we rave in the night.
Some say the time has come
We have to know what’s right.
If you’re a chosen one,
you best prepare for a fight.
Cause you can’t run away, from your self.

They shot our brother and our mother down
So what the hell are we suppose to do
With our fathers in the prisons bound
Tryin to say he lied when you know the truth
We bout to Hit them with this judgement sound!
Cause you got to choose whether win or lose.
This is your call,
Your Call to Action

So We’ve got to stand up
For what we know to be
And don’t you confuse the truth or fact
for what you believe.
We’ve got to hold on
Cause to rule this land some must deceive
They tried to wipe us from this earth,
Yet still we breathe

Said, We’ve got to stand up
For what we know to be
And don’t you confuse the truth or fact
for what you believe.
We’ve got to hold on
Cause to rule this land some must deceive
They tried to wipe us from this earth,
Yet still we breathe

They tried to wipe us from this earth,
Yet still we breathe

They tried to wipe us from this earth,
