[00:00.00] 作词 : Conor Michael Smith[00:01.00] 作曲 : Conor Michael Smith[00:19.19]If I'm being honest I'm tired of seeing blood shed[00:21.93]On the doorsteps of these young men, but how can I defend[00:24.96]When so many are treatin' this as another dumb trend?[00:27.60]They been fighting for centuries, this battle ain't won yet,[00:30.27]It's to the culture I attribute my success[00:32.65]So now I must confess, I'm upset[00:34.82]Victimized the statements are better left unsaid[00:37.12]And you are not exempt just because you got one friend[00:39.77]I lost a bunch of friends, honestly, I'm ashamed of 'em[00:42.28]Un-awar械 of the style and the culture we take from 'em[00:44.78]We need to empathize instead of placin' the blame on 'em[00:47.37]While we're safe in our homes, police officers stay huntin'[00:49.65]I just talked to God, there's a whole lot of rain comin'[00:52.36]I'm glad I finally mustered up the courage to say somethin'[00:54.75]I just know I'm here to fight the problem, I ain't runnin'[00:57.43]I believe in a change and I'm certain that day is comin'[01:00.01]But where do we start? We all wanna know[01:02.39]It seems like we got the drive to accomplish our goal[01:04.71]But progress has been slow, congress is a joke[01:06.97]So this message is for my fans, I need all of y'all to vote[01:09.75]I understand this pain is way harder to cope with[01:12.36]But that doesn't justify you not showin' up to protest[01:14.92]We have a responsibility to the hopeless[01:17.45]And you can start a wave without rockin' the boat[01:20.02]This is more than a tantrum, let's give 'em an anthem[01:22.28]In this nation, so divided, we're finally standin'[01:24.82]Our country has a reputation, we're tryna rebrand it[01:27.48]They've been askin' for a change, it's 'bout time we demand it[01:30.21]Way too many question my intentions and my direction[01:32.72]But they ain't gotta guess anymore, Imma let 'em know[01:35.22]That's it's the unity, I'm dedicated, the truth is my destination[01:38.22]It's on my generation to set the tone[01:40.22]So RIP to Breonna, RIP to Tamir[01:42.80]Fly high, Mr. Floyd, we know you're still in here[01:45.24]The last thing we should see is another mother in tears[01:47.74]This world is gettin' scary but we have nothin' to fear[01:50.56]Put your pride aside, stand up for what is right[01:53.09]Before they have to say an R.I.P. to another life[01:55.41]As far as what to say to the police, I got nothin' nice[01:58.14]Although it's not for me, you best believe I'll put up a fight[02:00.56]It's bigger than me and my people, these are the demons of evil[02:03.22]Poisonin' our politicians, how could we be so deceitful?[02:06.22]If I was black, I would be tired of keepin' it peaceful[02:08.39]We beat segregation and they still don't treat us as equals[02:11.08]This is the land of the free, how hypocritical[02:13.49]The color of your skin decides if you're a criminal[02:15.73]Somewhere we stopped seein' people as individuals[02:18.28]And as a white man, I peep all the subliminals[02:20.87]And you wonder why it's hard to put hands up[02:23.19]When puttin' hands up still gets you in handcuffs[02:25.86]You feel like you can't just, it's time that we stand up[02:28.25]They won't listen to y'all, maybe they'll understand us[02:31.07]But this isn't what you wanna listen to[02:33.67]It's easy to forget when the victim isn't you[02:36.30]It's not about what you've done, it's what you didn't do[02:38.52]I don't have the answers though, this is just a different view[02:41.38]See, I have faith we're gonna find a way[02:43.71]And though the sky is grey, I can see a brighter day[02:46.26]And while I'm here, there's another thing I'd like to say[02:48.85]When life is difficult, that's when you find the time to pray[02:51.51]Under Him, there's not a difference between you and I[02:53.88]I told you in the music, this movement is do or die[02:56.53]So join arms, lift your fists into the sky[02:58.93]Elijah McClain, I orchestrated the string section with you in mind
