We will not bow down to racism
We will not bow down to injustice
We will not bow down to exploitation
I'm gonna stand
I'm gonna stand
Now this is time for free your mind and your soul
Yo', half the story has never been told
Ladies, you got to demand what you want
And what we want is respect, right
(Come and take a walk with me)
(Closer walk with thee, see what only I can see)
Sisters, check this
Watch this
[Freedom] Turn us loose, set us free from all the chains that bind me
[Freedom] Let us run in our own direction
[Freedom] Let us go, set us free from all this propaganda and lies
That your people try to teach us
I know why you would like to bring us down
Because we have all the dirt on you
You try to tell us that our lives don't mean a damn
But we know so much better so we're gonna take our freedom
[Freedom] Freedom for my body (Freedom, freedom)
