Lyrics
Description
(verse)
Yeah, here we are, livin' in a twisted world,
Eyes wide shut, dreams unfurled, so many flags unfurl,
We got the media spin, they feed us lies within,
While the truth's buried deep, beneath the surface skin.
I see the hunger in the streets, kids dreamin’ of retreats,
But all they got is concrete, can’t escape these beats.
It’s hard to find your way when the world’s led astray,
Poverty breeds apathy, they just want better days.
(chorus)
But we're strong, we keep pushin', won't go silent,
Voices rising up like we're on a riot,
Social commentary, it's heavy on my chest,
Time to speak the truth, time to put it to the test.
(verse)
Look at the policies, built to keep us down,
Rich stay rich while the poor wear the frown,
Education's a luxury that only few get,
They try to silence our voices, but we ain’t done yet.
Systematic oppression is real in every season,
They say equality's a goal, but where’s the reason?
Check the statistics, look at the facts,
They hold us back, but we’re ready for attacks.
(chorus)
But we're strong, we keep pushin’, won't go silent,
Voices rising up like we're on a riot,
Social commentary, it's heavy on my chest,
Time to speak the truth, time to put it to the test.
(bridge)
From Ferguson to Flint, we raise our hands high,
The struggle ain't over; it's all do or die.
United we stand, divided we fall,
We gotta rise together; hear our call.
(verse)
They label us thugs while they hide behind screens,
Demonize our skin; don’t know what freedom means.
It’s more than survival; it’s about respect,
We want change now; they’re still cashing checks.
Broken systems built on profits and lies,
But watch us take flight as we aim for the skies.
The revolution won’t be televised—they’ll scramble the feed,
But our voices echo louder; shine bright like a steed.
(chorus)
But we're strong, we keep pushin', won't go silent,
Voices rising up like we're on a riot,
Social commentary, it's heavy on my chest,
Time to speak the truth, time to put it to the test.
(verse)
This ain’t just a phase; it’s part of our essence,
We’re livin’ through history—this ain't just a lesson.
J. Cole taught us how to express what we feel,
Bar for bar with conviction—our truths are all real.
So listen close 'cause I’m here to ignite,
A flame in your mind; let it burn bright tonight.
Let’s change this narrative with unity and might,
A lyrical revolution—let’s take flight!
(outro)
So here we stand tall in a world so slight,
With peace in our hearts and fire in our sight.
Together we rise against the tides of despair,
This is more than a rap—it’s a vision we share.
