[00:49.95]Freedom is like religion to us
[00:53.06]Justice is juxtapositionin' us
[00:55.72]Justice for all just ain't specific enough
[00:58.59]One son died, his spirit is revisitin' us
[01:01.45]Truant livin' livin' in us, resistance is us
[01:03.17]That's why Rosa sat on the bus
[01:05.06]That's why we walk through Ferguson with our hands up
[01:09.17]When it go down we woman and man up
[01:13.15]They say, “Stay down”, and we stand up
[01:16.08]Shots, we on the grown, the camera panned up

[02:32.89]Selma's now for every man, woman and child
[02:34.05]Even Jesus got his crown in front of a crowd
[02:36.83]They marched with the torch, we gon' run with it now
[02:39.73]Never look back, we done gone hundreds of miles
[02:42.65]From dark roads he rose, to become a hero
[02:45.83]Facin' the league of justice, his power was the people
[02:50.82]Enemy is lethal, a king became regal
[02:51.84]Saw the face of Jim Crow under a bald eagle
[02:54.55]The biggest weapon is to stay peaceful
[03:00.78]We sing, our music is the cuts that we bleed through
[03:02.07]Somewhere in the dream we had an epiphany
[03:03.54]Now we right the wrongs in history
[03:06.04]No one can win the war individually
[03:08.61]It takes the wisdom of the elders and young people's energy
[03:11.73]Welcome to the story we call victory
[03:15.02]Comin' of the Lord, my eyes have seen the glory
[03:18.10]

[03:35.18]We will be sure, we will be sure
[03:39.73]Oh glory
[03:42.69]
[04:03.65]When the war is done, when it's all said and done
[04:15.15]We'll cry glory, oh glory
[04:18.56]
