| Police killing my brother in the street
|
| No justice no peace
|
| Ohhhh Ohhhh Ohhhh
|
| They said the world is changing
|
| It ain’t for the better
|
| Wonder if God left us hanging
|
| Feels like he ain’t been providing no shelter
|
| For this stormy weather we been facing
|
| (Oh what’s going on)
|
| We still ain’t got answers
|
| Since Marvin asked a long time ago
|
| Oh, what’s going on
|
| I wanna know
|
| Who de we run to?
|
| And who do we call on?
|
| What’s the use of still saying prayers
|
| If deaf ears, they fall on
|
| (You want to believe)
|
| Wanna believe there’s a btter place
|
| When it’s all said and don
|
| The key is to keep the faith
|
| For our race to be won
|
| Raise me up a song
|
| What’s going on, oh oh
|
| (Oh, what’s going on?)
|
| I remember
|
| Marvin used to say
|
| Somebody tell me
|
| (Oh, what’s going on?)
|
| I gotta know
|
| Marvin used to say, Marvin used to say
|
| (Oh, what’s going on?)
|
| Tell me, tell me
|
| (Oh, what’s going on?)
|
| What’s going on? |
| What’s going on?
|
| Seems like from birth I was cursed
|
| With a guilty complexion
|
| Can’t even walk the street in peace
|
| Without the fear of been arrested
|
| Now the community is divided
|
| We dying by thousands from this virus
|
| Cities in shamble, riots
|
| Like Marvin used to say
|
| What’s going on? |
| What’s going on?
|
| Who de we run to?
|
| And who do we call on?
|
| What’s the use of still saying prayers
|
| If deaf ears, they fall on
|
| (You want to believe)
|
| Wanna believe there’s a better place
|
| When it’s all said and done
|
| The key is to keep the faith
|
| For our race to be won
|
| Raise me up a song
|
| What’s going on, oh oh
|
| (Oh, what’s going on?)
|
| Marvin used to say
|
| Somebody tell me
|
| (Oh, what’s going on?)
|
| I got, I gotta know, oh
|
| Mama played the song as a young boy
|
| (Oh, what’s going on?)
|
| Marvin used to say
|
| Tell me, tell me
|
| What’s going on?
|
| (Oh, what’s going on?)
|
| What’s going on? |
| What’s going on?
|
| Marvin used to also say
|
| Save the children, save the babies
|
| So a message to the youth
|
| The future lies in your hands
|
| To the fight of injustice is one
|
| We are one
|
| To Tamika Mallory and Rashad Robinson
|
| Keep pushing on (Keep pushing on)
|
| Jumaane Williams, Alicia Garza, Opal Tometi
|
| We are not alone
|
| Angela Rye (My sister), Patrisse Cullors, my brother Mysonne (My brother)
|
| Keep fighting, oh ooh oh
|
| Keep marching on (Marching on)
|
| Brother Ben, keep teaching on
|
| Rizza Islam |
