lyrics

“And when I speak, I don’t speak as a Democrat.
Or a Republican.
I speak as a victim of America’s so-called democracy.
You and I have never seen democracy, all we’ve seen is hypocrisy.
We open our eyes today and look around America,
we see America, not through the eyes of someone who has enjoyed the fruits of Americanism.
We see America through the eyes of someone who has been the victim of Americanism.
We don’t see any American Dream.
We’ve experienced only the American Nightmare.”

something like a phenomenon or Napalm in your Vietnam
from Palestine to Ferguson, a revolution soon to come
you think you’re right but you’ve got it wrong
because we’re in those same old streets with the same old songs
they keep trying to knock us down but you know that we’ll never fall
and now the time has come for you and I and WE WILL RISE!
Black Lives will rise when real eyes realize real lies

nothing like a phenomenon, the Great Whore of Babylon,
the trumpets of Armageddon, emancipation soon shall come
they think we’re wrong but we know we're right
they’ll never see it coming like a thief in the dead of night
we stay walking in the truth, steady shining our living light
and now the time has come, it won’t long when WE WILL RISE!
Black Lives will rise, realize…

“There’s no such thing as a non-violent revolution”
we must dismantle all of their racist institutions
this is our Final Solution to manifest our human evolution

THERE IS NO SUCH THING AS A NON-VIOLENT REVOLUTION.
