Tonight's the Night
Tonight's the night
Tonight's the night
Our world is on fire
Does anybody care
The flames are the choir
Of the voices in the air
Will they listen to our pleas
Will they listen to us sing
Or will they try to put us down
As we're sinking in the ground
Do I have to runaway
Should I fight or I stay
Brothers sisters we must rise
Tonight's the night
Tonight's the night
We stand up tall
Tonight's the night
Before the fall
Tonight's the night
We stand up tall
My brothers and sisters starting to fall (Start to Fall)
By the ones who out here pushing the law (They be pushing the Law)
They don't want peace they want control (Oh Oh)
They may take our bodies but never our souls (Never our Souls)
My brothers and sisters starting to fall (Start to Fall)
By the ones who out here pushing the law (They be pushing the Law)
They don't want peace they want control (Oh Oh)
They may take our bodies but never our souls (Never our Souls)
Everything we feel now
The pain the hurt the sorrow
They want to beat it from us
I wanna see tomorrow
I wanna live the life our ancestors dreamed of
Instead of this world
Trying to break us down
All we want is freedom but they got us on a chain
Its 2020 and my people still getting hanged
Everyday they add a new name to the list
And say that we equal but no we only coexist
If the cops don't kill us then that rona probably will
Got the kids in the hood missing yet another meal
Take a walk in these shoes and then tell me how it feel
Bet you be the first to get the hell outta here
They wanna see us fight each other
But I won't go no further
I'll just stand my ground
As their shooting off their round
Rubber bullets to the face
Tear gas I can't take
All I can do is scream and shout
Tonight's the night
We stand up tall
Tonight's the night
Before the fall
We stand up tall
We stand up tall
Before the fall
Tonight's the night
We stand up tall
Tonight's the night
Our world is on fire
Does anybody care
The flames are the choir
Of the voices in the air
Will they listen to our pleas
Will they listen to us sing
Or will they try to put us down
As we're sinking in the ground
Do I have to runaway
Should I fight or I stay
Brothers sisters we must rise
Tonight's the night
Tonight's the night
We stand up tall
Tonight's the night
Before the fall
Tonight's the night
We stand up tall
My brothers and sisters starting to fall (Start to Fall)
By the ones who out here pushing the law (They be pushing the Law)
They don't want peace they want control (Oh Oh)
They may take our bodies but never our souls (Never our Souls)
My brothers and sisters starting to fall (Start to Fall)
By the ones who out here pushing the law (They be pushing the Law)
They don't want peace they want control (Oh Oh)
They may take our bodies but never our souls (Never our Souls)
Everything we feel now

Tonight's the night
We stand up tall
Tonight's the night
Before the fall
We stand up tall
We stand up tall
Before the fall
Tonight's the night
We stand up tall
