we see the truth, we will break out of your cage

now the world is ours, we'll step onto the stage

they're horrified, but we won't break our strife

tell me you murderers, was it worth the while

i bet you thought it was, with the blood on your hands and the grin on your face

you did what you thought was right in that short daze

but you were wrong, when you thought we wouldn't care

for murdering a man because of your racist mind is never fair

we saw what you'd done and we took a stand

now everyone will see us in this unfair and corrupted land

we will say their names, we will fight for their rights

for they did nothing wrong, they had no reason to die

say it with me, say it loud

black lives matter, there is no doubt
