R to the A to the C to the ISM
This ain't just an anthem
This the situation
A to the N to the T to the I
Is the movement we moving towards
To unite the world schisms
Anti-racism is a plague that didn't just come to take us down
In the 21st Century
Didn't hit when Covid hit the streets
All nations seem to be born with this disease
Since history became herstory to stories of generations
Upon which we breed
We all seen it but never been it
Some of y'all don't know how it be
How it feels to be deemed as the other factor
A level above or below general matters
Take it for granted
Don't experience it til you be the minority
Don't gotta travel the world
Just travel different hoods
Across the street
All lives matter
Sure why not
Not so because all of them don't
Just the ones in danger
Whose house is on fire
While you burning wood over your wood top stove
I've been called racist names
And experienced the subtleties of how other races think
She she ni ni ho ma on the streets
The C word hindered me as a kid
I'd fight back with words of my own
But in the pleasure of company that say, no don't.
Now I stand behind those that say yes
Say it louder
because many of us have been oppressed.
Black lives matter more than you think
They've been marginalized like the aboriginals of these lands
No one has a home
We are all born on the same place
Why can't we have the same standards
And same race
Like saying oh yea, it's the human race
We see differences and similarities
But why hate?
Let's all grow up a little shall we please
To be more thoughtful
Of what's been regulated, police
Patrolling the streets to serve and protect
But inciting violence and hate speech instead
Not everyone like I said
Not everyone matters
But a lot of us do and that should be a big factor
Race religion pedigree politics
Just made up systems to fracture our mindsets
Let's really listen
And look outside
Maybe look inside
And reset our voices
Our mental landscape builds the real thing
Physicality ain't violence
It's a stance against
bigotry.
That's all I'm saying
WE already been delaying
Now it's time
And we all relaying the message
By playing this worldwide game of relay
RElease the race.
