No justice or justification

We trust in God but can't trust in a nation

The cusp of generations searching for a ventilation

If 2020 vision is any indication of where we are

Where we've been where do we go

American ain't legible

My rights are being left behind

In questioning times they say invest in us

Trying to rest my mind

The press be pressed to find stories by my kind

I suggest the climb

Though many many holler about justice reform

But won't put dollars where the hustle is born

You know our politicians they love to perform

Acting and singing that government song

How they love America when you loving it wrong

We the people are becoming reborn

Cannot understand it

I still believe that there's a place in this world

For people just like me

People all around world

I still believe that there's a place in this world

A place for me and you

Cannot understand it oh

I still believe that there's a place in this world

For people just like me

People all around world stand up

I still believe that there's a place in this world

A place for me and you

Elastic winner in America

There's more content than there is character

Truth is we starring at a derringer

Old ways is the barrel that's damning us

We better cross and cross rivers

A stolen soul and lost figures told by Doc Rivers

Movement of the people we take God with us

And recreate equal that will outlive us

Delivered to this earth with authority

Never thought of myself as a minority

Cordial invites to far left and alt rights

I'm from the Bob Marley party

Everything'll be alright

You say all life matters

But you pay it no mind when black life shatters

I know there's light the end of the struggle

Revolution and love is like a couple

Cannot understand it

I still believe that there's a place in this world

For people just like me

People all around world please stand up

I still believe that there's a place in this world

A place for me and you

Cannot understand it oh

I still believe that there's a place in this world

For people just like me

People all around world stand up

I still believe that there's a place in this world

A place for me and you
