Join the movement
Recognize it's time we stop and face the music
Collect our wits amidst this mass confusion
Won't be blind to the tactics that you're using
We know what you're doing
Go ahead and tear me down
But I didn't do it for the glory
Telling me to shut my mouth
You can kill the writer, but can't kill the story
Take to the streets and shout (scream and shout)
Like the thousands did before me
With truth on my tongue
And the air in our lungs
Put them up
Let me hear you shout it out
FREEDOM
No rest in these streets (until we get)
FREEDOM
No justice, no peace (until we get)
FREEDOM
We march our restless feet (until we get)
FREEDOM
For the ones who Rest In Peace (we sing)
Freedom
Let's talk solutions
It's an uphill battle when it's us against an institution
It's written on the walls, in our books, in our constitution
Wanna get to the root
Gotta root for the revolution
Go ahead and tear me down
I didn't do it for the glory
Telling me to shut my mouth
You can kill the writer, can't kill the story
Take to the streets and shout (scream and shout)
Like my heroes did before me
With truth on my tongue
And the air in our lungs
Put them up
Let me hear you shout it out
FREEDOM
No rest in these streets (until we get)
FREEDOM
No justice, no peace (until we get)
FREEDOM
We march our restless feet (until we get)
FREEDOM
For the ones who Rest In Peace (we sing)
Freedom"
