There's blood on the hands
Of these beasts in blue
And now they wanna matter
Like they don't already do
There's judges hand picked by 45
Cuz they MAGA pride
And they sell his lies

We at the bottom
With feet on our backs
Then they want us to stand
With hand to heart for their flag
Oh no
I just can't do it
Act like nothing's wrong
No I just can't do it

Over 500 years of history in blood
Genocide after genocide
Dragged through the mud
Stolen land and desecration of native soil
No regard for human rights
To the evil go the spoils
And my my my
Lord I don't know your plan
And I'm trying to understand but
My my my
I can't wait too long
I'm so ready to get it on
Cuz

We deserve better
We deserve better than this
We deserve better
If there's no restitution
We can't forgive
We deserve better
We deserve a redemption song
We deserve better
If there's no restitution
We can't move on

Knees pressed on our necks
And we struggle to breathe
Illegal chokeholds
Putting an end to youth dreams
The Atlantic is loaded
With the African souls
Cradled by Yemonja
When their bodies were tossed
Taking all in their path
Through pillage and rape
Manifest destiny
The excuses they make
Then the bombing of churches
Kill the young and the old
See us less than human
Like we ain't got a soul
They Buried our religion
So that we praise theirs
Some of us don't even know
Who we really or where
We came from
And then they want us to smile
In the face of a flag
That represents our oppressor
And now
We struggle for a bag
Because the scale's unbalanced
We don't live, we survive
It's sad
But there's hope if we rise together
Raise your fists fam we deserve better
We deserve better

We deserve better
We deserve better than this
We deserve better
If there's no restitution
We can't forgive
We deserve better
We deserve a redemption song
We deserve better
If there's no restitution
We can't move on

There's blood on the hands
Of these beasts in blue
And now they wanna matter
Like they don't already do
There's judges hand picked by 45
Cuz they MAGA pride
And they sell his lies

We at the bottom
With feet on our backs
Then they want us to stand
With hand to heart for their flag
Oh no
I just can't do it
Act like nothing's wrong
No I just can't do it

Over 500 years of history in blood
Genocide after genocide
Dragged through the mud
Stolen land and desecration of native soil
No regard for human rights
To the evil go the spoils
And my my my
Lord I don't know your plan
And I'm trying to understand but
My my my
I can't wait too long
I'm so ready to get it on
Cuz

We deserve better
We deserve better than this
We deserve better
If there's no restitution
We can't forgive
We deserve better
We deserve a redemption song
We deserve better
If there's no restitution
We can't move on
