We live in a land mad at a man for taking a stand
For taking a knee disgruntled with his country
I think it's funny everyone burning their Nikes
Can't you see that they gotta keep us fighting
Keep the fire igniting the flame alive
'Cause that's the way they create a divide
If it's about respect then respect his choice
Choosing a passive action for those without a voice
Bring the noise
Shut it down
Chuck D taught me that when PE was around
Now it's hit the ground and get choked out
Is that what freedom is all about?
I'm talking inside jobs or no more jobs
Got us praising false idols like Steve Jobs
Y'all need to get your priorities straight
'Fore they lay you down on your dying day
Stand up, sit down
Take a knee, then bow
Stand up, sit down
Take a knee, then bow
Stand up, sit down
Take a knee then bow
Stand up, sit down
Take a knee then blow
This is america catch us all slipping now
Only the land of the brave you can stand your ground
Keepin is not it moving will kill you now
Especially when you hear get yo ass on the ground
Better comply or be killed complied n' got killed
This is why Kap kneeled
So many missed that
Bringing up the flag in MAGA hats
And we see more blood spilled
Believe police word over video
I said before n said again ya mind blown
Together we strong see how we team up
To overthrow em inciting from my poems
Tamir Rice n Philando we stand for em
Police from within gotta day something to em
This is America thought we was free now
Only the land of the brave you can't kneel now
Stand up, sit down
Take a knee, then bow
Stand up, sit down
Take a knee, then bow
Stand up, sit down
Take a knee, then bow
Stand up, sit down
Take a knee, then blow
