Someday We'll All Be Free

Hang on to the world as it spins around
Just don't let the spin get you down, no
Things are moving fast
Hold on tight and you will last

Keep your self-respect, your manly pride
Get yourself in gear, keep your stride
Never mind your fears
Brighter days will soon be here

Take it from me, someday we'll all be free

The tongue is a sword, grace be with you from the Lord
Suited for war, of course, you can never be sure
Bloody images and innocent tenants in the morgue
The aftermath when you put your prejudice before
Humanity, let me speak to you candidly
We practicing philanthropy while you taking our families
Uh, losing my sanity, I struggle showing empathy
Knowing the one I seek for understanding is an enemy

Crucifying our character, it's the God in us
Thorns piercing my pride, they telling lies
Tryna demonize the dead, while they angel wings spread
Tugging you by the leg as you dangle from the ledge
R.I.P. Donny, George Floyd and Miss Bland
Tamir, they showed fear from a toy gun in your hand
Breonna, laid in bed while the bullets circulated
We gotta be mercenaries when love is our native language someday

Keep on walking tall
Hold your head up high
Lay your dreams right up to the sky
Sing your favourite song
And you'll keep going, going on
Hey

Take it from me, someday we'll all be free
Hey, just wait and see, someday we'll all be free, hey
Take it from me, someday we'll all
Take it from me, someday we'll all
