I’ve been struggling to put my words together
Telling people that I matter Wakanda forever
I’ve been told without my kind the world would be much better
They want to lock me up or carry me out in a stretcher
This the time to rise to the sky, now we taking flight
Fighting for our lives, recognize, time to treat us right
Open up your eyes and ignite the power to go fight
Equality for all, even if you’re black, brown or white
Tell me do you hear me, well too bad cause you can’t block us out
Four hundred years of murder, lynchings, anything to shut our mouths
Yeah, this the time we talk about unfairness, time to say it loud
Say their names, Breonna Taylor, George Floyd, we hurting now
This shit has been going on for too long, ask the police why
More names get added to the list and they don’t care, they take our lives
You Blue Lives Matter, All Lives Matter, always tryna justify
The killing of an unarmed black, they say that they deserved to die
Gotta switch up, can’t let that fly
Black Lives Matter ‘til the day I die
Hear our pain, cause we’re tired of crying
Say our names, cause we’re tired of dying
We just wanna live and see the world change
We don’t want to keep counting and adding more names
We march and rally cause we’re all feeling pain
It’s a cruel, sick world, this ain’t no game
You can see it in my eyes that I reached my limit
Racism is the real pandemic
All this hate and Trump’s complicit
All his followers so damn twisted
Defund the police and invest in the state
Yeah, MAGA never made America great
I’m young, black, gifted, that’s why they hate
I’m Black, I’m proud, not sorry 'bout my race
Enough is enough
How long must we suffer
'Cause you know the way things are
And the way things were have never worked for us
You think you know me, but you don't
You don't know my story, no you won't
I'm sick of being viewed as if we're the enemy
Stop all the hate, bring back the humanity
Enough is enough
Ooooh, ooooh, ahhhh, ahhhh, yeah
Screaming Black Lives Matter, but the government don’t give a f**k
Fists in the air, a revolution, a turning point
Shook like Harlem, but we sting like Cassius
Any means necessary, we got it from Malcolm
Fire coming, see them running, soldiers in the street are gunning
Trigger finger itching and these judges on the benches
Everybody yelling quit it, saying f**k it to the system
When They See Us wasn’t fiction, it’s the f**g lives we living
One nation under God, Jesus Christ, you’re a fraud
They took a white man from abroad and said that he was the son of God (They lied)
Yeah, the lies they tell, that’s the holy grail
That’s the reason that you got to read this shit yourself
Yeah, Donald did you see it, did they get that we can beat it
A whole nation, a whole movement, a whole country getting heated
That’s the Trump effect, just imagine that
Since you lost, we gon’ need this country back, whoo!
Enough is enough
How long must we suffer
'Cause you know the way things are
And the way things were have never worked for us
You think you know me, but you don't
You don't know my story, no you won't
I'm sick of being viewed as if we're the enemy
Stop all the hate, bring back the humanity
Enough is enough (We've all simply had enough)
Oooh, oooh, ahhh, ahhh, yeah

Breonna Taylor
Ahmaud Arbery
Stephon Clark

Together we rise
