The Great Debate 3

The Great Debate 3 Lyrics

Freedom of speech is the freedom to speak
If anyone is not allowed to speak
Then it's not freedom of speech
It's freedom to conform
To certain parameters of what are acceptable
And then what that's doing
Is giving power to some authority
To decide what is acceptable and what is not acceptable

Breonna Taylor, George Floyd
Ahmaud Arbery, oh boy
These cops are dirty with no remorse
There's far too many, my soul is torn
Outside today, it's so damn bittersweet
Mask all on our face to try and stop disease
Marchin' in the streets, we won't take no defeat
Until my last breath, I'mma fight for what I believe
The love I feel is stronger than all of your bigotry
'Cause being involved is harder than following picture scenes
The government's controlling and mandatin' our free speech
The opposition's approachin', we standin' here all in peace
We just want justice, they think that we want war
We want those killers punished and slammed to the cold floor
All we're askin' for is America to do its job
But Trump's a trashy whore that's preparin' to drop the bomb
Of soldiers in the streets assigned to arrest protestors
We're marching in the streets because you won't be our protectors
I'm fuckin' done

You tell me that I'm ignorant because I push for change
Treat me like an idiot who's got nothin' left to say
But imma keep the battle up until my last breath
You'll never fuckin' stop me, even if you try your best
You tell me that I'm ignorant because I push for change
Treat me like an idiot who's got nothin' left to say
But imma keep the battle up until my last breath
You'll never fuckin' stop me, even if you try your best

Injustice has become the norm because of ignorant leaders
And ignorance is spread from all those leaders 'cause they need us
They know if we unite with fists raised to the sky
Screaming "black lives matter" we're not gonna let them slide
They say "all lives matter" but that shit is null and void
They clearly don't believe that or they'd be angry about George Floyd
Breonna Taylor needed a savior, but did she get one? No.
They bust their door and killed her but they had the wrong home
All lives can't matter until black lives do
All lives can't matter until Hispanic lives do
All lives can't matter until trans lives do
All lives can't matter until all lives do
Police need reform and our people need comfort
National Guard in the streets is only gonna put us under
It should be obvious that all these kids including myself are scared
'Cause America doesn't care about it's people in need of repair (No)

You tell me that I'm ignorant because I push for change
Treat me like an idiot who's got nothin' left to say
But imma keep the battle up until my last breath
You'll never fuckin' stop me, even if you try your best
You tell me that I'm ignorant because I push for change
Treat me like an idiot who's got nothin' left to say
But imma keep the battle up until my last breath
You'll never fuckin' stop me, even if you try your best

Despite how futile it seems sometimes
We can't give up
We got to keep fighting
We got to keep pushing for change
Because if we don't make America change
Then my kids in the future
And everyone's kids may very well not know what a free nation is
We have to keep trying

Mama, mama, don't you cry
Mama, mama, don't you cry
I'll keep on marching 'till I die
I'll keep on marching 'till I die
Papa, papa, don't you know
Papa, papa, don't you know
The police have got to go
The police have got to go
Papa, papa, don't you know
Papa, papa, don't you know
The police have got to go
The police have got to go
Ain't no justice in this town
Ain't no justice in this town
Ain't no justice in this town
Ain't no justice in this town
Ain't no justice in this town
Ain't no justice in this town
Ain't no justice in this town
Ain't no justice in this town
