Land of the free And the home of the brave Is where everyone yearns to be But it's where the slaves work for free It is where my father as a sharecropper Pick cotton on his knees It is where he was denied schooling Because he had to help my grandfather feed the family For very little money But he made sure I would not be denied My education To get a phd degree So the next generation of Americans Can enjoy their prosperity Oh say can you see This is the land of the free So stand up for what you believe And bring an end To this police brutality If we can put a man on the moon In the twentieth century We can find a cure For covid nineteen In the twenty first century Is where tiger woods hits a golf ball Off the fifteen tee And where mexicans risk their lives To climb over a wall To get a taste Of america's rich opportunity Oh say can you see This is the land of the free So stand up for what you believe And bring an end to this police brutality Kaepernick kneeled not to show disrespect To our flag soldiers or country But to stand up and stop the social injustice And cruelty of so much police brutality Against those of the same nationality From the police bureaucracy It is for those who have no voice Repeat after me Black lives matter For you should show love To all Americans No matter their ethnicity Black lives matter In the land of the free Oh say can you see This is the land of the free So stand up for what you believe And bring an end to this police brutality Oh can't you see what you doing to us In the land of the free Why do we allow For police brutality in the home of the brave In a free society We must treat all our citizens with love respect and dignity To continue to receive God's favor And nod as we pray to the lord To continue to keep This country America strong and free Oh say can you see This is the land of the free So, stand up for what you believe And bring an end to this police brutality It is where kaepernick's kneeled on the football field on one knee To bring attention to the injustice of police brutality George floyd Eric Garner Michael Brown Breonna Taylor Rayshard Brooks in our society With the national anthem playing Oh say can you see In the land of the free
