lyrics

I've been beat down
The good lord by my side
Telling me to keep my head
Keep on walking
'Cause evil knows how to hide
Inside the hearts of men who try
To tell you what's wrong from right

Well, if what's good for me just holds somebody down
Its like all lives matter 'til they're face first on the ground

When did we justify to look each other in the eyes
and decide we are strangers
When all is said and done
and we're sent to kingdom come
will we see we weren't so different

Its the season for learning how to fight
When patience takes all your might
Still we're quick to shoot our neighbor
Keep on talkin'
Make it louder every time
There's not good people on both sides
When one doesn't want me alive

Well, if what's good for me just holds somebody down
Its like all lives matter 'til they can't breathe on the ground

When did we justify to look each other in the eyes
and decide we are strangers
When all is said and done
and we're sent to kingdom come
will we see we weren't so different

How do you make something great again
When it wasn't very good to start with
The scale is always tipping
to help line someone else's pockets

Well, if what's good for me just holds somebody down
Its like seven shots to a man when he's turned around
If what's good for me just holds somebody down
Its like all lives matter 'til they can't breathe on the ground

When did we justify to look each other in the eyes
and decide we are strangers
When all is said and done
and we're sent to kingdom come
will we see we weren't so different

I don't give up
I've got good people by my side
Telling me to keep my head high
