They shackled our wrists but not our soul
Plantation winds whisperin' "Break the control"
Blood in the cotton sweat in the soil
Ancestors' voices say: "Turn the turmoil to oil"
We marched through the night stars as our maps
Stole freedom's rhythm from the slaveholder's traps
Now the whip's just a shadow we rewrote the game
Same struggle new name—ain't a damn thing changed
From the ships to the streets we the flame in the dark
Broke the chains with our hearts now we're rewritin' the arc!
Every scar's a medal every tear's a decree—
They tried to bury us but we're the seed we're the tree!
They sold our tongues but we spat out the lies
Turned hymns into bullets lit fires in the skies
Harriet's whispers still echo in the breeze
"Steal your own freedom—no knees only knees to the trees!"
Now we're buildin' thrones from the rubble they made
Black gold in our veins no more debts to be paid
The auction block's dust—we're the phoenix the spark
Revolution's a heartbeat not just a remark
Can't lock the sky in a cage
We're the storm turn the page!
They wrote us in chains we reply in ink
Future's ours let the world rethink!
Black lives matter—scream it louder
From the grave to the cradle we're the power!
Black lives matter—write it in the stars
We're the wounds we're the scars we're the ***BARS!***
From the ships to the streets we the flame in the dark
Broke the chains with our hearts now we're rewritin' the arc!
Every scar's a medal every tear's a decree—
They tried to bury us but we're the seed we're the tree!
They sold our tongues but we spat out the lies
Turned hymns into bullets lit fires in the skies
Harriet's whispers still echo in the breeze
"Steal your own freedom—no knees only knees to the trees!"
Now we're buildin' thrones from the rubble they made
Black gold in our veins no more debts to be paid
The auction block's dust—we're the phoenix the spark
Revolution's a heartbeat not just a remark
Can't lock the sky in a cage
We're the storm turn the page!
They wrote us in chains we reply in ink
Future's ours let the world rethink!
Black lives matter—scream it louder
From the grave to the cradle we're the power!
Black lives matter—write it in the stars
We're the wounds we're the scars we're the ***BARS!***
