Deep in my heart
I do believe
We shall overcome someday
Deep in my heart
I do believe
We shall overcome someday

Everyday another hashtag, say their names
Everyday another body bag, nothing has changed
We take to the streets and they place the blame
On us, they really should be ashamed
But they're not and we are so fucking tired
We've had enough of all the shit that's transpired
POTUS it's you and the pigs that are really fired
We won't stop until our victory is acquired
In the bullshit we will not drown
Uprise and march in every single town
Demand humanity for the black and the brown
Turn up and turn out til this shit is shutdown
They can't continue to deny us joy and our laugher
If we unite imagine all the systems we will shatter
All us if true freedom is what we're after
No black person left behind cuz ALL BLACK LIVES MATTER

Deep in my heart
I do believe
We shall overcome someday
Deep in my heart
I do believe
We shall overcome someday

Not everyone can be on the front lines
So that's something we all gotta keep in mind
Some of us can't march and that shit is okay
We each contribute to the movement in our own way
What's important is we lift each other up high
We need to be arms linked if we wanna get by
Together our voices will amplify
And we are gonna show them why
Our anger's justified and we will not quit
They're jealous of our beauty though they will not admit
But we've been passed down true strength & grit
So we could take on all the racists and the hypocrites
They spoke out so we could say what we gotta say
They prayed for our future so that today we could pray
They paved the way so we could pave another way
They fought another day so we could fight another day

No justice no peace
No racist police
No racist police
No racist police
No justice no peace
No racist police
No racist police
No racist police

Deep in my heart
I do believe
We shall overcome someday
Deep in my heart
I do believe
We shall overcome someday

It is our duty to fight for our freedom
It is our duty to win
We must love and support one another
We have nothing to lose but our chains
We have nothing to lose but our chains
We have nothing to lose but our chains

Maybe that someday is right now
I know it hurts but we keep on going somehow
We gotta stay united and we can not allow
Them to kill our hope and keep our spirits down
Our liberty and justice must be our fixation
Deny it they may but we're the ones who built this nation
Time for talk is over no more negotiation
So let's raise our fists for black liberation

Deep in my heart
I do believe
We shall overcome someday
Deep in my heart
I do believe
We shall overcome today
