Cuz' we're a chained nation
Pretend it's all fine
Take a moment to
Listen close to the words I say
What I'm about to tell you
Will make you contemplate
Everything that's going on
Looking at the nation's state
I mean, there's people in the struggle
Like we're under lock and chain
People killing and discriminate
The foreign man
He's still a brother under God
Even from a foreign land
It shouldn't matter where you're from
Or even what you have
I see them killing all these people
With their bare hands
Thinking that it's right to
Take a human life
And it seems they just want to fight
Look how they brutalise
Attacking pure innocence
That's praying for a better life
That's trying to feed their children
Fighting for their human rights
And that's all people are after
The love and the passion
The preachers and pastors
The dreamers take action
And the prayers that get answered
The feud's and racial clashes
Wars between religion
Screw that, everybody matters because
Cuz' we're a chained nation
And we're a chained nation
We're a chained nation
Yeah, we're a chained nation
And we're a chained nation
Baby we're a chained nation
And we're a chained nation
Cuz' we're a chained nation
I turned the TV on the news last night
And countless women just got raped
The previous night and it's like
Everybody turns away, right
Like nobody cares who's daughter's
Being felt up until its their's, right
Like no other human is deserving of help
If they don't know you or your skin ain't the same
Then it's every man for himself
But that girl has nobody else
Only 8, no understanding
She has no chance in this hell
And the man that's doing it
Is old enough to be her father
The dad she never even knew
Cuz' her mom was a victim of the
Same thing she's going through
That's how she had her daughter
Now she's stuck in that life
Keeping secrets no one even thought of
Chained Nation
Cuz' we're a chained nation
And we're a chained nation
We're a chained nation
Yeah, we're a chained nation
And we're a chained nation
Baby we're a chained nation
And we're a chained nation
Cuz' we're a chained nation
Look
I see all these people asking
What happened to this world
Like let us pray for Paris
And now they're retaliating
Through anger
So everybody stopped looking
Toward the skies for some answers
And its apparent that there's
Beauty behind the madness
When will someone finally stop
And take the time to stand up
And address all these matters
Like when did all of this happen
Who's got enough courage
To finally restore some balance
In this twisted society
We just wanna forget
Cuz' we can't face the fact
That even good ones are bad
Reporters stories about police
Who swore to serve and protect
Are a part of the very things
That they have sworn to prevent
And we are chained
Cuz' we're a chained nation
And we're a chained nation
Baby we're a chained nation
We're a chained nation
And we're a chained nation
Baby we're a chained nation
Cuz' we're a chained nation
And we're a chained nation
In this latest clip you see
The officer drawing his gun
Toward the 21 year old
As the victim steps out of his car
4 shots are fired straight
Into the victims back
He falls to the ground
As you see the smoke
Rise from the gun
His now aggravated girlfriend
And crying 2 year old daughter
Remain in the car but
No charges were pressed
Uh, so take these chains off me
Take these chains off me
I'ma say what I want
You can't place your limits on me
All these politicians promising change
Honestly, I haven't seen any
So cast your vote cuz' the
Promises they bring is empty
And you can try and kill me
You won't ever kill me soul
And I see all these people dying
Like it's natural
Ain't it kinda funny how
They all somehow just overdose
You can't ever kill my words
Like they can't kill the Holy Ghost
And it's about time someone
Starts to spread the bitter truth
And it seems there ain't no
Mandela's in this newer youth
Like all they care about is carrying
Madiba notes and Gram posts
Like they don't care what
This world is coming to
And we are chained
We are slaves as they pass by
Cuz' we do nothing to stop it
We watch them all die
Till its our turn and begin
To burn us all alive
And it's too late
They have you chained
Pretend it's all fine
Pretend it's all fine
Ey
Pretend its all fine
Cuz' we're a chained nation
And we're a chained nation
