So go ahead and fix your crown
Then watch it all burn in smoke oh-oh
Go ahead and stand your ground
We're on the long
Road to freedom no no
Too much time tryna figure out why
Too much time to be patient
All this time you be feeding us lies
Ain't no truths in your statements
Too much pain in these little
White lies you left here
All this time tryna figure out how
We're still here
I take pride in the things
That we've done
Side by side in the revolution
Won't stay silent for things
That I love
'cause we know them
Nuh care about us
White men can't jump
But at least they can run
Broke these chains just to
Put our hands up
They can never see
The kingdom coming
You wanna see us
All amount to nothing no
I can see your face
See the light in your eyes
I can see the change
Feel the heat of the fire
If you can feel the pain
Then you know you're alive
Both feet on the line
By any means I will fight oh no
By any means I will fight
By any means I will fight
By any means I will fight
I've spent too many days
In my head now
Did you think we would forget how
Too many destinies
Too many sentences read now
Read now see all
This pain in the headlines
But I have cried for the last time
But know what happens
See you would be blind
If it was just
An eye for an eye
And what if we changed the world
We rise from the flames the victor
It's far from a perfect picture
I know we're sinful
But we are human
Would you be grateful
If you took my place
Say my name
There is redemption in the steps we take
Say one life and I'm gonna use it
Innocent 'til I am proven
One last chance and you blew it
One last dance in the ruins
So much hate in your movements
Told me I couldn't prove it
One last prayer for the sinners
You only learn what you witnessed
I can see your face
See the light in your eyes
I can see the change
Feel the heat of the fire
If you can feel the pain
Then you know you're alive
Both feet on the line
By any means I will fight oh no
By any means I will fight no-oh
By any means I will fight
Any means I will fight
I've spent too many days
In my head now
Did you think we would forget how
Too many destinies
Too many sentences read now
Read now see all
This pain in the headlines
But I have cried for the last time
But know what happens
See you would be blind
If it was just
An eye for an eye
