someone to defend us?

If we all agree that we're

equal as  people

Verse 8
Dm 
Am 
Dm 
G 
Trying times all the time
Am 
Destruction of minds,  bodies,
Em 
and human rights
G 
Am 
Stripped of bloodlines, whipped
and confined
Dm 
G 
This is the American pride
Dm 
F 
It's justifying a genocide
C 
Am 
Romanticizing the theft and bloodshed
Dm 
Em 
That made America
the land of the free

To  take a black life,
Dm 
Em 
land of the free
Am 
To bring a gun to a peaceful
Dm

fight for civil rights
Dm 
You are desensitized to pulling
triggers on innocent lives

Verse 9
Dm 
Because that's how we got
G 
Em 
here in the first place
G 
Am 
These wounds   sink
Dm 
deeper than the bullet
Em 
G 
Your entitled hands
Am 
could ever reach
Em 
Dm 
Generations and generations of pain,
fear, and anxiety
Am 
Equality is walking without intuition
Em 
G 
Saying the protector and the killer is
Am 
Em 
wearing the same uniform
G 
Am 
The revolution is not televised
Em 
Media perception is forced down
Dm 
the throats   of closed minds
So it's lies in the headlines
Am 
Em 
G 
And generations of supremacy resulting in your ignorant,
Em 
Am 
Em 
privileged eyes
G 
We breathe the same and
Am 
we  bleed the same
Em 
But still, we don't see the same
Dm 
Be thankful we are God-fearing

Verse 10
Because Because we do not seek revenge
Am 
Em 
G 
We seek justice, we  are past  fear
Am 
Em 
We are fed up eating your shit
G 
Because you think your so-called
Am 
"black "black friend"
Em 
G 
Validates your wokeness and erases
Dm 
your racism
That kind of uncomfortable conver
Am 
sation is too hard
Em 
For your trust-fund pockets
G 
pockets to swallow
Am 
Em 
To swallow the strange fruit hanging
from my family tree
Am 
Because of your audacity
Em 
Dm 
To say all men are created equal
in the eyes of God
Am 
But disparage a man based
on the color of his skin
Em 
G 
Am 
Do not say you do not see color
Em 
G 
Am 
When you see us, see us
Em 
G 
We  can't breathe
