When will we stop running
Stop trying to take flight
When will we start standing up
And fighting for our rights?
When will we be united
Come together for one cause
Instead our own private agendas
To correct these messed up laws
The law is s’posed to protect us
It’s s’posed to watch our backs
Instead we are abused by it every day
Against us it’s all stacked
It’s because we are divided
No one standing for another
It’s everybody for themselves
No one is looking out for brother
As long as we fight each other
We commit the greater sin
Because as long as we’re divided
The enemy will always win
Identities don’t matter
Laws don’t have a face
Gay or straight, black or white
Man or woman, we’re all one race
Human.
Stop looking for the labels
They are convenient excuses
They only stand to throw up walls
And to magnify and vilify abuses
Too many have died needlessly
For this, someone will pay
We may not see the justice lived out
In our time and day
But justice is not for us
It’s not ours to decide
No matter how much it hurts us
Nor how many tears we’ve cried
But just will be ours one day
As sure as you see the sun
But it will only happen
When we all stand as one
When we stand united
Heart to heart and hand to hand
Laws will change justice will reign
It will be a better land
Stay Safe and Alert!!!
