Tell me where you wanna go
Grab a bag, call a cab, pick you up at the back door
They'll separate us, try anything just to make us go
Try to silence us, they'll try to break us and hurt us
They'll separate us
Hoping we'll be theirs to form
Hoping that we'll give up
Fall victim to their system
I pray for freedom
As motherfuckers try to shut us down
But I'll never leave ya
Instead of run, I'ma come for 'em
I keep praying for freedom
For they are not gonna slow us down
Meet us at the forefront
Instead of run, we gon' confront
When a tender thought
Meets a brutal kiss, did we crеate this?
To a moon so full
And a knife so sharp, how could we rеsist?
Church bells chime
As a sign of all the signs we missed
We must insist, so we must coexist, go
I pray for freedom
As motherfuckers try to shut us down
But I'll never leave ya
Instead of run, I'ma come for 'em
I keep praying for freedom
For they are not gonna slow us down
Meet us at the forefront
Instead of run, we gon' confront
♪
Instead of run, we'll come undone
Broken pieces of a time bomb
Together we're the response
Put together we're the evidence
Church bells chime
As a sign of all the signs we missed
We must insist, so we must coexist, go
I pray for freedom
As motherfuckers try to shut us down
But I'll never leave ya
Instead of run, I'ma come for 'em
I keep praying for freedom
For they are not gonna slow us down
Meet us at the forefront
Instead of run, we gon' confront
They'll separate us
They'll segregate us
Scare us and hurt us
They'll separate us
They'll segregate us
