What Do You Believe?

Does a man need starving of his air Before the lighter-of-complexion start to care? As a daughter, bullet-slain while sleeping lies to rest Colourblindness lies at graveside as her crest And I believe I'm no offender, I believe But I believe we should surrender, I believe So much sickness in the system I can see From which you turn away Entirely down to pedigree Now what do you believe? As we kneel down on the system's throat We suffocate the strength from prejudice's choke The longest sufferers To no avail recited every verse For the lifting of the curse The powers that have been for far too long Still tell them that they don't belong Don't tell me you would put your weapon down (I can't breathe) I believe I'm no offender, I believe But I believe we should surrender, I believe All lives matter is the line we always read And then you turn away Ain't it so grand to know you're free? Does a man need starving of his air Before the chains will start to wear? How many more laid in the ground 'Till the lemming masses make a sound? Go ahead and tell 'em to be grateful again Say his goddamn name! I believe I'm no offender, I believe But I believe we should surrender, I believe No such sickness in the system I can see All color, every shade I'm sure they would disagree Now what do you believe?
