Black Lives Matter |
| What’s supposed to be understood |
| Will always begin misunderstood |
| Until it’s time to be understood |
| Enlightened where the ego’s removed |
| What’s supposed to be truly heard |
| Won’t be in the poetry of words |
| It will be in lessons discerned |
| If the flesh releases concerns |
| Every word I say ain’t a war |
| All that I believe ain’t for grabs |
| It’s okay to be who you are |
| If it serves you stay, where you’re at |
| If you hear the truth from my lips |
| It’s okay to never admit |
| I will speak the life I have learned |
| Hopefully the love is returned |
| If love is love, is love, is love, is love |
| Then what is one, is one, is one, is everyone |
| The problem is, is when it’s us, it’s us, it’s us |
| If my life matters, then stand no matter |
| If it was true, would it be black? |
| Whatever the hue, would you fight back? |
| Is your blood red, doesn’t it match? |
| Then when I stand, stand with my black |
| If love is love, don’t we all match? |
| Cuz if it’s true, is it just black? |
| Fill in the space, stand in the gap |
| And when I stand, stand with my black |
| Racism is loud and it’s clear |
| What’s the hurt in hearing my fear? |
| Doesn’t mean I don’t see your pain |
| It just means we’re human the same |
| If I matter, hold up the sign |
| Say it with me, identify |
| This is love, it wants to be heard |
| Show me that you care for mine |
| If love is love, is love, is love, is love, is love |
| Then what is one, is one, is one, is everyone |
| The problem is, is when it’s us, it’s us, it’s us |
| If my life matters, then stand no matter |
| Cuz if it was true, would it be black? |
| Whatever the hue, would you fight back? |
| Is your blood red, doesn’t it match? |
| Then when I stand, stand with my black |
| If love is love, don’t we all match? |
| Cuz if it’s true, is it just black? |
| Fill in the space, stand in the gap |
| And when I stand, stand with my black |
| It’s not trouble everyday |
| (For I learn to meditate) |
| We must learn to meditate |
| (Conversations are irate) |
| And if age’s the tell-tale sign |
| (I could be the great divide) |
| You against I or before I? |
| And what really is supreme? |
| (Only God reigns over me) |
| Fight for freedom of «love speech» |
| (For he freedom of the free) |
| If the story isn’t right |
| (Redemption will arise) |
| You against I or beside I |
| If your life matters, then stand no matter |
| If your life matters, then stand no matter |
