Текст песни Melanin - Such feat. Kerrie Joy

Someone to save our lives
Someone to save us
Someone to save our lives
Our lives
Someone to save our lives
Someone to save us
Someone to save our lives
Our lives
Planted
Deep within this fertile brown skin lies the capacity to be magnificent
We stand on the backs of giants
The oceans formed after millennials of sun-kissed rivers have poured in
And like the oceans our vastness has not yet fully been explored
We know more of the glass ceiling above us than we do of the power within us
That black power, we are electric
Shocking civilization into existence, charged with greatness
But how soon we forget that his-story doesn't tell our-story
The underground railroad isn't our only claim to glory
We didn't have sit-ins and marches when we built the pyramids
The struggle is real but so are our successes
Do the math yourself because the figures have been hidden
All we needed was a reflection, but instead we've been lookin for
Someone to save our lives
Someone to save us
Someone to save our lives
Our lives
Someone to save our lives
Someone to save us
Someone to save our lives
Our lives
So, the next march on Washington should be a march of melanin
Flowing throughout the streets like the blood throughout the skin
Where they, can't, breathe, we'll carry the oxygen
Cells of change, say their names to ensure they haven't died in vain
Til 'we shall overcome' becomes 'we have overcame'
We shall lift every voice and sing as every fist is raised
Take every knee, as we make the stand to say that
We the people won't simply go away
We were Stolen from Africa brought to America with royalty in our back pocket
That's why they consistently charge us, paying for this country's vices
As the cops become the robbers, of our liquid gold
Spilled across the nation, soaked into a foundation that they've tried to wash away
But like liquid gold we always rise
All we need to do is rise, and we don't need
Someone to save our lives
Someone to save us
Someone to save our lives
Our lives
Someone to save our lives
Someone to save us
Someone to save our lives
Our lives
