Salaam Remi, Maimouna Youssef - Tear It Down Lyrics

Mmh
Yeah
Ahh

Every monument, every statue
Every pillar of your racist values
We gon' tear it down, we gon' tear it down
We gon' tear it down
'Cause we've come too far to turn back around
The change is here, the change is now
We gon' tear it down, we gon' tear it down
We gon' tear it down

I lift his chin and look my son in the eyes
I said I'll fight for you 'til the day I die
I said I'll fight for you, I'll do what's right for you
To make this right for you, do what I gotta do
To break every chain, say their names
'Til you see a change, you gotta be the change
'Cause we the change
Tear it down, tear it down

Every monument, every edifice
We gon' tear it down, every brick of it
I let the river wash away the blood on it
Tear it down
'Cause we've come too far to turn back now
The change is here, the change is now
We gon' tear it down, we gon' tear it down
We gon' tear it down

Ooh (tear it down)
Tear it down (tear it down)
Tear it down, tear it down
Tear it down (tear it down)

Every monument (every monument), every edifice (every edifice)
We gon' tear it down (we gon' tear down)
Every brick of it (every brick of it)
Let the river wash away the blood on it (let river wash away the)
Tear it down (tear it down)
