Rumble, rumble
(In the streets)
World burinin'
(Feel the heat)
Fathers dying
(Hands of police)
Legislation
(The new white sheets)
This ain't no land of the free
(Land of the free)
Blood stained hands, your legacy
Try to re-write the history
(History)
Strange fruit hangin' from the poplar tree
Will anything change? (change?)
Or will it always stay the same? (always stay the same?)
Will anything change? (change?)
Or will it always stay the same? (always stay the same?)
Used to be
(Bought and sold)
Now everything we touch
(Turns gold)
Don't know what you've been told
(You been told)
But we invented rock n roll
Soul, jazz and blues
Could give a fuck about your (blue suede shoes)
Don't get me started bout the right to choose
Decades of progress (we ain't finna lose)
This ain't no land of the free
(Land of the free)
Unless we all get to be
(Get to be)
Marching it like it's 63
(Sixty three)
Cause schools ain't safe and there's blood in the streets
Babies dying
Mothers weep
If there's no justice
(Ain't no peace)
Will anything change? (change?)
Or will it always stay the same? (always stay the same?)
Will anything change? (change?)
Or will it always stay the same? (always stay the same?)
Will anything change? (change?)
Or will it always stay the same? (always stay the same?)
Will anything change? (change?)
Or will it always stay the same? (always stay the same?)
Liar, liar, world's on fire
Reigning darkness and deceit (mmmm hmmm)
Truth ain't what you believe
You gotta show me your receipts (mmmm hmmm)
Liar, liar, people dying
You just sit and watch us bleed (mmmm hmmm)
Keep us down and steal our culture
Well you ain't no friend to me
Will anything change? (change?)
Or will it always stay the same? (always stay the same?)
Will anything change? (change?)
Or will it always stay the same? (always stay the same?)
Will anything change? (change?)
Or will it always stay the same? (always stay the same?)
Will anything change? (change?)
Or will it always stay the same? (always stay the same?)
