Brown Girl Blues Destiny

The government is lying
And they want to keep us dying
And damn, you think, what is even the point of trying?
See, we are shot when we are defiant
And we are shot when we are compliant
They rape our women and degrade our truth
Next they try to segregate our gifted youth
Put big distractions and tears in eyes
Screams in TVs mute our empathetic looks
See, we have freedom but we are not free
We have freedom but we are not free
We have freedom but we are not free

We are the melanin
We are the gods
We are royal
They want to shoot us off [x2]

Children murdered and tags on feet
Poor little boys can't even go out and play in the street
You think it's been a long time since Civil Rights?
No, still our people have to go out and fight

KKK live as police [x4]

There are churches burning
There are churches burning
There are people dying
There are people dying
There are people hurting
There are people hurting
They are not surviving
They are not surviving
