Because we’re all fighting the power now, aren’t we?
Resist
Resist
Insist
On standing up for your rights.
His battle was won
But the war has just begun
No time to give up the fight.
Resist
Desist
He’ll be telling you to shut up.
They’ve been shouting at us for eight long years.
Now it’s our turn to interrupt.
Resist
His list.
Put yourself on it if you dare.
Just know if you do
They’ll be coming after you.
His people are everywhere.
Resist
It’s bliss
It’s a rush to struggle with the power.
At the end of the day
You will hear the people say
This could be their finest hour.
A little melodramatic, yes, but so is much of hip-hop.
