Don't Give Up

Verse One:
Four hundred years of oppression, still being faced with racism
Hatred been given a free pass to roam and we’re supposed to call this land home
Pushed from every angle into failure’s grasp, lives taken daily and the hate’s spreading fast
How can we peacefully co-exist with all the evil and the wickedness
Injustice served by knees on necks, my people treated with no respect
Be strong and sing your song, till our voices are heard

Chorus:
Keep dodging all the punches, keep rolling past the haters
Keep fighting for your freedom, until they’ve had enough
Keep dodging all the punches, keep rolling past the haters
Keep fighting for you freedom, keep on going don’t you give up
Keep going don’t give up.

Verse Two:
Bold attempts made to make others believe
That slavery was a choice and we’ve all been deceived
And that racism don’t exist, while just driving down the street is a risk
Persecuted for our hair and skin, you know that we got all the power to win
Be ten steps ahead and don’t look back
Cause we will always be under attack
Injustice served by knees on necks, my people treated with no respect
Be strong and sing your song, till our voices are heard

Chorus:
Keep dodging all the punches, keep rolling past the haters (Keep on rolling past the haters)
Keep fighting for your freedom, until they’ve had enough
Keep dodging all the punches, keep rolling past the haters
Keep on going don’t you give up

Be proud of who you are, Black or Brown
This hatred is no longer allowed
Hey! We got a long way to go but we can’t stop now
Keep rolling past the haters
Keep fighting for your freedom
Keep on going don’t you give up!
