Standing Together

I been through hell.


Man I even been chain and sell.


But I stand tall because like a black person I will not fail.


I have the heart of a king and a dream that can not be kill.


But this world is fill with misery.


our people is dyeing in this modern day slavery.


Black,white,Latinos,all of my people get up and marsh with me.


Because by any means necessary brother and sister we must break free.


Please listen to me case in God's eyes we are all one family.


But why can't we stop the fighting and unite as one.


Because thats the only way this war will be won
