Black Currant

We need a speech that'll bring Martin's Dream Back
It's World peace versus racism bean bags
Every color every creed screaming out for what we need
Better capture what you see like a screen grab
See this time the world got they fist high
Too many mothers and fathers done seen they kids die
You can't just shoot us down and hold your job
Robocops better stay in their seats like Rosa Parks
Don't just talk say their name if a cop shot em
Life cut short like the tail on a Rottweiler
His life, her life, that life mattered cause if all lives matter than our Black Lives Matter
Is that hate there because of what my race is
Segregation and slave ships has plagued us
Carmichael aim shoot them down with liberation
March to eradicate supremacy and hatred
We can't breathe you can hear it in our screams
We just ask for civil rights and they shot Dr. King
We're all human beings from the same human race
If we end racism we can make this country great

White cop kill a black man kneeling on his back
Kill our Kings, why do they skin make you feel attacked
Devoted to the time it takes to figure out the puzzle
Donnie talking gibber need to put him in a muzzle
Trouble when the president is evidently racist
Governmental slavery that money too persuasive
Black Wall Street ready gotta reassemble
Fists high, Black Pride Intercontinental
Alkebulan came before the name Africa
Made of coconut oil and soil. We Magical
And we represent the many over power the few
Yelling Power to the People Put the Power in you
Put the Power in my hands never in the next man
My ancestors survived made it through the clan
Made it through discrimination, hating in this generation
It's no waiting for the change we seek we gotta take it
Face a problem with solution so you know we gotta make it
Uh Yeah
Underrated and hated, Segregated in cages
Separated by wages and the system is tainted
Say they names cuz the game been rigged
Cops killing black men and pose for a pic So sick

Yo, I bet Rosa was tired just tryna make it home because of her we sitting where we
want choose a throne
Can't forget about Simone so extraordinary because of her I never wanted to be ordinary
Dear Harriet, thank you for bravery. You came and got our people all up out of slavery
Madame Walker was an orphan took a different route then she flipped it to a million now we press it out
I heard the caged bird sing cuz of Angelou and if we all rise up we could never lose
We could never lose if we all rise up
We could never
