Say their names, say their names Never forget their pain Say their names, say their names Say their names They live in fear that their friends and families Will be murdered in the streets By the unjust hands of the police So I have to speak for the ones who are not free In the same country as me They have no voice, they cannot breathe Say their names, say their names Never forget their pain Say their names, say their names Fight for change and fan the flames That will burn it down and bring an end to hate Say their names, say their names Lest we never forget again We need to stand together in this fight Spread love and do what's right Shine your light into the night How can we heal when the unjust way we treat Our fellow neighbor that we see Seems to end so violently Say their names, say their names Never forget their pain Say their names, say their names Fight for change and fan the flames That will burn it down and bring an end to hate Say their names, say their names Lest we never forget again Say their names, say their names Never forget their pain Say their names, say their names Fight for change and fan the flames That will burn it down and bring an end to hate Say their names, say their names SAY THEIR NAMES

I can't understand how friends and family That I've known for so long can have the capacity To hold so much hate for someone's nationality Political and Religious beliefs, or sexuality What ever happened to morality Oh say can you see that your behavior is wrong You're the one who does not belong   I'm so sorry that we can't get along I keep trying, you always think I'm wrong If we keep fighting nothing will get done Live together or we will die alone   It makes me sad every time I read The alternative facts you spread, I think it's crazy Because it doesn't really matter which bathroom someones in And no one should care if a man marries a man The world's not going to end because a woman gets an abortion And you'll never make a friend With a heart full of hate and a gun in your hand This land is our land I'm so sorry that we can't get along I keep trying, you always think I'm wrong If we keep fighting nothing will get done Live together or we will die alone I'm so sorry that we can't get along I keep trying, you always think I'm wrong If we keep fighting nothing will get done Live together or we will die alone

As I sit and close my eyes There's peace in my mind And I'm hoping that you'll find it too And these feelings in my heart I know are meant for you Meant for you

I must've dreamed a thousand dreams Been haunted by a million screams But I can hear the marching feet They're moving into the street Now did you read the news today They say the danger's gone away But I can see the fires still alight They're burning into the night There's too many men, too many people Making too many problems And not much love to go around Can't you see this is a land of confusion And this is the world we live in And these are the hands we're given Use them and let's start trying To make it a place worth living in Well Superman, where are you now When everything's gone wrong somehow The men of steel, the men of power Are losing control by the hour This is the time, this is the place So we look for the future There's not much love to go round Tell me why this is a land of confusion And this is the world we live in And these are the hands we're given Use them and let's start trying To make it a place worth living in I remember long ago When the sun was shining And the stars were bright all through the night Sounds of your laughter as I held you tight So long ago I won't be coming home tonight My generation will put it right We're not just making promises That we know we'll never keep Too many men, there's too many people Making too many problems And not much love to go round Can't you see this is a land of confusion Now this is the world we live in And these are the hands we're given Use them and let's start trying To make it a place worth fighting for This is the world we live in And these are the names we're given Stand up and let's start showing Just where our lives are going to
