Ruga - I'll Show You (Remix) lyrics

Verse 1: It ain't my choice I was born white It ain't your choice you were born black It ain't our choice when the boys fight It ain't our choice when they hold back It ain't our choice when the world bad But we can use our voice, you should know that Power in numbers, they want to see us fall under But we will not stumble, we got the thunder We come together as brothers f** social division, I'll cut a knife and incision It's my decision to rhythm In my revision I vision MLK, Mr. Abe And they shunning the "isms" The world is ours for the taking if we keep changing the system We gotta go, grow, and mold or keep staying the distance But I don't want to be old praying that things were different We all come from the same, God or not, it's the mission It's our job, we were called to put this world in remission Hook: I'll show you that we can stand up to this We don't need these events to tell us how we should live We don't need these f**ing men saying how we should live And we don't need to be the product of insensitiveness We ain't ever need to give in to the ways that have been And we ain't ever need to give in to the partisanship We can make a better world for ourselves and our kids We can be the generation who said, "We will not quit." Verse 2: Attacks on my people, attacks on my people I can't stand to look at the news, it's like I'm watching a sequel It's 9/11 two and they're airing the evil I can't be safe in my room, I gotta close up the key hole I need a moment to breathe This ain't about you and this ain't about me This ain't a left wing, right wing, French thing or American This about the Earth and the humans that we share it with Yeah, we need to take some meditation for the hatred and the nations that be taking all the weight And on a side note, my boat's open for the patients who need healing I'm revealing that I'm here, I promise, say it Relay it, you ain't gotta be strong if you not You ain't gotta fake smiles or nods It's okay to be at odds with the ones that you love As long as you can realize they're the reason you're tough I'm asking all of you to please step it on up Life is too short to be cold and unplugged Open your eyes, you got the world by your side When you sleep, still it moves like a thief in the night Try to be a better you and I'll be a better me Together, we can move forward like we were lettering And everybody else gon' play their part The world is still miraculous, we just need heart Hook: I'll show you that we can stand up to this We don't need these events to tell us how we should live We don't need these f**ing men saying how we should live And we don't need to be the product of insensitiveness We ain't ever need to give in to the ways that have been And we ain't ever need to give in to the partisanship We can make a better world for ourselves and our kids We can be the generation who gave all it could give Outro: Said it's time to make a change Said it's time to make a change We talk about it but we can't ever explain Ah, why we even here, man? Now I must refrain Said it's time to make a change We ain't even living, we just watching like a game We can walk around it till we run out in the tank Ah, while I'm in this here man I will not refrain
