[Chorus: Raheem DeVaughn]
I've seen joy and pain in this world (This world)
I'm just tryna remain in this world (This world)
I even pray to God for change in this world
I've seen some troubling times in this world
'Cause my Black life matters in this world (This world, this world, this world)
'Til we're equal in this world
Power to the people in this world (This world, this world)

[Verse 1: Bun B]
Been walking down the wicked streets of America, who'd have thought
That the fight for basic civil rights was still left to be fought
Even after we lost Huey, Hampton, Martin, and Malcolm
To racist elite power structures whiter than talcum
See, they've been treatin' my people like they ain't еqual
Since the slave ships and now wе livin' in a sequel
Talkin' 'bout 'em lynchin' us, burnin' us and killin' us
For four-hundred years, and man, they still ain't feelin' us
Systemic racism, economic and judicial
Plus killer cops attacking us daily, pulling they pistol
So now mane it's official, we've gots to take a stand
Every time they kill a Black woman or a Black man
