Hands Up!

Stop pretending nothing's going on in this world

Fight for equality, hands up, don't shoot

Stop pretending nothing's going on in this world

Fight for equality, hands up, don't shoot

Don't you pick me out

'Cause I'm a needle in the haystack

Funky on this jam, like my brothers was way back

(Don't you) Put me in the back of the bus

I'll struggle if I must, till they scatter my dust

(Don't you) Point those fingers as if you aiming triggers

It's all you, point them at yourself in the mirror

'Cause I can't, I can't, I can't cope with the standards

Wishing for some change while I'm trying to find the answers

But oh I, oh I

I think it's about the time to fight till the throne's mine

Now, please stop pretending that everything is alright

'Cause you can run, but you can't hide

From the issues and problems in the real world

So get 'em, tell 'em

Tell 'em that this jam is my only way of living in a free world

(Is my only way of living in the free world)

Stop pretending nothing's going on in this world

Fight for equality, hands up, don't shoot

Stop pretending nothing's going on in this world

Fight for equality, hands up, don't shoot

Let's walk in this parade together

Realize it ain't over and fight for a better world

You heard it, stop hiding the truth

Let's make an end to what we started

Look at these broken-hearted people in the eyes

Fight

Stop lying to yourself

Institutional lies, pimp this caterpillar

Still, we believe what they tell us

Let us just walk in this parade together

Gether

Gather round and let me tell ya

It's not only war in the streets

Also, the war within our souls that can change the weather

Don't you get that?

Do you think you're the exception?

They should accept it?

Fuck that

This shit ain't over, nah

This shit ain't over

(Over)

(Over)

(Over)
