I feel compelled to post and speak But my education feels too bleak Yet blacks and whites and others too See the harm the policemen do I am white But I'm not dumb I see an action so blatantly wrong The harm that the policemen have done The people are out and the streets are loud They will not rest until justice is found One name fires up the nation Yet the harm continues, little hesitation There are good, but there are bad People on every side of the issue are mad But it's hard to deny the facts Unlawfully taken lives can't be given back Speak up for what is true and what is right Even if you're scared since you are white I know you aren't dumb Help be the change that needs to come

Unlawfully
I feel compelled to post and speak But my education feels too bleak Yet blacks and whites and others too See the harm the policemen do I am white But I'm not dumb I see an action so blatantly wrong The harm that the policemen have done The people are out and the streets are loud They will not rest until justice is found One name fires up the nation Yet the harm continues, little hesitation There are good, but there are bad People on every side of the issue are mad But it's hard to deny the facts Unlawfully taken lives can't be given back Speak up for what is true and what is right Even if you're scared since you are white I know you aren't dumb Help be the change that needs to come
