We will fight today
for the rights that were taken away from us
the tree we hung from for saying what was right
to the blood shed on our backs for saying the truth
We will fight today
for the people that got murdered
for our kids that didn't receive the right education
for walking barefoot in the hot sand to show others they cared
We will fight today
for our ancestors to be proud
to know we can walk in the same restaurant and not be looked upon
to stand at a poll and vote for our next leader
yes we will fight today
for civil rights to be recognized
