Land of the free
And the home of the brave
Is where everyone yearns to be
But It's where the slaves work for free
It is where my father as a sharecropper
Pick cotton on his knees
It is where he was denied schooling
Because he had to help my grandfather feed the family
For very little money
But he made sure I would not be denied
My education to get a Phd degree
So the next generation of Americans
Can enjoy their prosperity

Oh say can you see
This is the land of the free
So stand up for what you believe
And bring an end to this police brutality
If we can put a man on the moon
In the twentieth century
We can find a cure for covid nineteen
In the twenty first century
Is where Tiger Woods hits a golf ball
Off the fifteen tee
And where Mexicans risk their lives
To climb over a wall
To get a taste of America's
Rich opportunity

Oh say can you see
This is the land of the free
So stand up for what you believe
And bring an end to this police brutality
Kaepernick kneeled not to show disrespect
To our flag soldiers or country
But to stand up and stop the social injustice
And cruelty of so much police brutality
Against those of the same nationality
From the police bureaucracy
It is for those who have no voice
Repeat after me
Black lives matter
For you should show love to all Americans
No matter their ethnicity
Black lives matter
In the land of the free

Oh say can you see
This is the land of the free
So stand up for what you believe
And bring an end to this police brutality
Oh can't you see what you doing to us
In the land of the free why do we allow
For police brutality in the home of the brave
In a free society
We must treat all our citizens
With love respect and dignity
To continue to receive god favor and nod
And as we pray to the lord to continue to keep
This country America strong and free

Oh say can you see
This is the land of the free
So stand up for what you believe
And bring an end to this police brutality
It is where Kaepernick kneeled
On the football field on one knee
To bring attention to the injustice of police brutality
George Floyd, Eric Garner, Michael Brown, Breonna Taylor,
Rayshard Brooks in our society
With the national anthem is playing
Oh say can you see
In the land of the free
