Tell me how you feel when you hear the news
Is this why they started singing the blues
How do we fix it, have we any clues
Words can't describe how I feel inside
Let's see what the music does

Tell me how you feel when you see the footage
And the picture is clear but the story is crooked
Tell you how I feel, I'm just really shook
Words can't express what I must confess
Let's see what the music does

Tell me how you feel when you see it in your feed
Thoughts and prayers until it affects me
Say their names - oh wait, let me see
There's been so many in recent memory
Privilege got my tongue like an iron bit

Just a little bit out of touch
Let's see what the music does

I tried to take a knee and you cried, "Blasphemy!"
You're taking a knee and now I can't breathe

So take a people's history and say "what's the big deal?"
Whip them into shape, and make them build freedom
And then talk about it 24/7
Isn't this lovely - a little slice of heaven
Feel a little bad so make it all OK
Give them back their freedom with lots of red tape
Remind them of it as if it's something you can take

Your knee is on my neck and it's getting hard to breathe
Your knee is on my neck and I think you're killing me
I may not be in the fields but I'm struggling in these cuffs
And if this is freedom, then man, I've had enough

Let's see what the music does
Justice, injustice
And protesting, breaking
And scorching and making
And riot and violence
And penchant for vengeance
And lynching and healing
And burning crosses
And gentrification
And segregation
Smashing, rehashing
Discussing and busing
Betraying and bleeding
Loving and hating
And hiding and biding
Graffiti, whitewashing
Action, reaction
Peace and compassion
Let's see what the music does
Let's see, let's see what the music does
