Lets talk about my country And the things that on a rise A place no one fight back But no one knows why Rape and poverty and police brutally Is something common right now In our everyday lives There a part That just puts us to the road Killing our brothers and sisters As religion always told It was something so often That just happens from the past And we kill each other for another thing we call cast There's another part That won't leave us alone Where they put us into classes For the money we own And even till today I don't call this place home Its like living in the store Like an item with bar code I'm from a country where women are objectified A place where the bigger picture is hidden in lies And city where the slums are all pushed aside Where nobody ever talks but expect to get right yeah I promise to protect Even if we never met Even if the whole world look us down I will still fight back till the world resurrects Go away I'm awake and I don't wanna sleep Hold my hand all together everybody gonna preach for our life and preach for our soul So the future generation Could cherish this gold I'm from a country where women are objectified A place where the bigger picture is hidden in lies A city where the slums are all pushed aside Where nobody ever talks but expect to get rights Everybody think they on their own But equally and justice ain't found in my home I keep telling my self It's the way that it goes Don't call yourself a man If you call this place home Rape culture was always normalized Its something so often in everybody's eyes So they blame it on the girl for wearing what she likes And yet another young princess dies Tell me why now Tell me why Why the people of my country ain't united on a tie Is it the god that we choose Or the cast that we rise And I'm ashamed to be a man And I'm ashamed to be alive I'm ashamed to be alive yeah Cause I couldn't do what's right yeah Cause I couldn't save a single person And I'm talking bout the country And I know that this shit ain't right yeah Think about life And tell me what wrong and what's right For the people that you love Would you step up for a fight Then alright Everybody by your side With all of us together we could save another life I promise to protect Even if we never met Even if the whole world look us down I'll still fight back till the world resurrects
