Lyrics
A twenty dollar bill is all it takes to lose your life
Laying on the ground with nothing left to do but die
Cry
into the night
Fight
We’ve got a right
CHORUS
Oh-keep singing his songs
Lifting him up
out of the cold
Oh-we’ve got a right
to take on the streets of gold
We’ve got a right
We’ve got a right
The look upon his face when the judge told him his fate
Justice wasn’t served and it will never stop the hate
Lies
We’ve got to know
Why
Change is so slow
CHORUS
Say their names
beyond your doors
Breonna Taylor George Floyd
Say their name beyond your doors
Trayvon Martin Emmett Till
Freddie Gray Lamar Smith
Eric Garner Botham Jean
Philando Castile
Willie Edwards Jr.
Say their names
beyond your doors
Say their names
beyond your doors
Say their names
beyond your doors
Say their names
beyond your doors
CHORUS
We've got a right
We've got a right
We've got a right
We've got a right
