In the darkness of the night I see your star shine bright I hear the cries of our people trying to be seen as equal I feel your resilient heart being torn apart the desperation, indignation, exasperation They insult us with their words their ignorance, unconcern, and condemnation but despite it all, we shall rise and never compromise The pure hearts that we share The proud people of this nation We shall overcome despite their laceration
