When American people say its disrespectful to the flag
When our athletes protest by kneeling
I wonder how will this nation respond to the murder
Of an innocent black man begging, “officer please, I can’t breathe?”
Imagine a day when a black man won’t have to wonder
If he will return home safe from jogging
A day when the law that swore to serve and protect him
Will stop looking the other way to protect the men who lynched him
That’s why we stand up
(Stand up)
Stand up
(Stand up)
Stand up for black lives
So we stand up
(Stand up)
Our hand up
(Hand up)
For those who lost their life
One love, one voice, united we all stand
We will stand up
(stand up)
Stand up
(Stand up)
Up for those who can’t
One day a black nurse will feel safe coming home
After a long day caring for her patients
She will be able to Rest In Peace in the comfort of her own bed
In a future where police officers are held accountable for their actions
But until then innocent citizens continue to
Live in fear every day
Because the world doesn’t listen when a black mother cries for her baby
No, what the world hears are the politicians who open their wallets
And thank corrupt police officers for their service
That’s why we stand
That’s why we stand up
(Stand up)
Stand up
(Stand up)
Stand up for black lives
So we stand up
(Stand up)
Our hand up
(Hand up)
For those who lost their life
Say their names:
George Floyd
Rodney King
Ahmaud Arbery
Treyvon Martin
Breonna Taylor
Eric Garner
Tamir Rice
Freddie Gray
Yvette Smith
Michael Brown
Tanisha Anderson
Sandra Bland
Philando Castile
Michael Dean
And countless others
That’s why we stand up
(Stand up)
Stand up
(Stand up)
Stand up for black lives
So we stand up
Our hand up
Hand up
For those who lost their life
Stand up
(Stand up)
