Let it Burn

Don't believe you're lying eyes Don't believe you're lying eyes Their filtered to see white man's disguise Our founding fathers chiseled into stone But our country was built by other peoples bones Plantations fueled by cotton trade Selling lives Dirty pay Swimming in white sands the privilege cannot see While her brothers and sisters are fighting to be free Let it burn, let the flames swallow it whole Let it burn, let the flames swallow it whole Blocking the airway by the knee It took too much to let us see Protectors looked up blindly While another man bleeds Your lives were ripped planet earth Breath was taken too soon But your marching on word with us Your omnipresent like the moon Let it burn, let the flames swallow it whole Let it burn, let the flames swallow it whole The earth keeps on spinning Cycle on repeat While the police are releasing tear gas, the president send a a tweet The earth keeps on spinning, spinning, spinning, spinning The earth keeps on spinning, spinning, spinning, spinning Burn, burn, burn, burn Burn, burn, burn, burn Burn, burn, burn, burn You gotta let it burn You gotta let it burn You gotta let it burn You gotta let it burn You gotta let it burn You gotta let it burn You gotta let it burn Let it burn, let the flames swallow it whole, whole Let it burn, let the flames swallow it whole
