These antics won't break us! No, no, nooooo [Mafia Twins] Our ancestors fought hard To break these chains They probably rolling in the grave For how we behave [Luv] We female rulers of the safe And rulers of our existence A queen that's gonna win by any means God as my witness [Styles Montana] Subconscious teaching Yield the lesson Erase ourselves and motivate us Omitting new tactics And neglecting any agitators [Kristie Yamagucci] This ain't the way The world today Too many people dying, crying Throw the bullets away We got Trump in office Our government done lost it Police target Our children and fathers I hear the saying that our black lives matter But tell me do they really matter When all black lives shattered? [Dj Mim] Stop the hate and how it equates Free to say free to be gay Open up your closet and be F-R-E-E free!
