[Am]See [F]the[G][C][Am][F][G][C][Am]

against him they're [F]waiting for you to [C]fail
So you trace your steps in snow,
make it rain, make it hail

run past the end [C]zone
He's gonna use his [Dm]heart to grow wings
[Am]And

[Verse 2]
in the congregation,
waiting for the Holy [C]Ghost
He's gonna sing a song that will
wake up the whole [G]world
All the [Am]brethren and sisteren we're waiting
for that missed us
To [C]lead us to the promise land,
I [Am]hope I haven't missed you

[Verse 3]
[Am]All I see I signs, all I feel is limits
[C]All we see is broken,
all we feel is finished
[Am]Trying to fix a system that
we could never [C]win in
[Am]Don't Omarosa on me

[Am]
What does the flag mean to the
ghost of Emmett [C]Till?
When there's freedom, liberty and justice,
but not for all?
He's was [Am]gonna change the face
of your ghetto neighbor[F]hood
[C]If you let him live
[G]Rid

[Verse 8]
[Am]ing through the trees
You're from furthest,
where I'm [F]from
We must [C]teach our sons to cower,
we must teach our sons to [Am]run
If they [F]want [C]to live[Am]

Said the wrong thing to the
wrong cop
Oh, well, what's he got?
Paid leave, a full stop

[Verse 10]
'Cause [Am]he got shot whilst his kids watched
[F]Sig[C]n of the times as the

He was just an[Am]other hand
out for welfare
[F]Headed to the [C]prison
industrial complex
