[Intro: Tomi Owo]
When nobody believes in you
When nobody sees what you can do
Because you look a little different, seem a little distant
From their reality, ah
I will never understand how this is all they can see
And if you need someone to hold your hand, just come to me
I understand perfectly
I am on your side
I am on your side
I am on your side
[Verse 1: Ghost]
There’s so much pain
I let my heart bleed on the page
Tryna fathom twelve n***as keeping me in restraints
Taking turns raping me screaming for Jesus in vain
I was taught church is a haven it’s supposed to be safe
Shame on us....fellow man the blames on us
Cuz we keep raising cowards that can’t contain raw lust
What if tables turned and these animals preyed on us?
The ones you look to for protection betray your trust
That girl was sixteen....
Innocent child prolly had big dreams....
It’s just evil and foul...
I got people saying tell your daughter to watch how she dresses
Charity begins at home was the untimely expression
Is it her fault another human mind is regressive?
Look that mindset is warped and it’s time that we end it
Miseducation demands that we heighten our senses
Cuz the struggle involves fighting all kinds of oppression
[Verse 2: Tomi Owo]
Division was the reason that they gave
And the root of all the hate
But in unison
We will gather up our things
Leave and fly with our wings
I am no hunter, I am no prey
Sooner or later, night turns to day
I am no stranger
You are, you are no rival of mine
[Hook: Tomi Owo]
What it means to be human
We are just the same, we are human
Every man, every woman
Call us by the name
We are human
We’re all looking for love
We’re all fighting our demons
We’re all dreaming the world, searching for a place to rest
We’re all looking for love
We’re all fighting our demons
We’re all dreaming the world, searching for a place to rest
[Verse 3: Tec]
Yet another morning where I wake up feeling down
They say that we are equal
But it’s hard to figure out
Humanity being questioned everyday
I think about
The latest hashtags
We all repost for clout
The feelings have turned to rage
I feel with all the evil on display
The world is trying turn another page
The Structures that they create
Are slowly starting to fade
Celebrated Independence
Our minds are still enslaved
Looking for who to save
Looking for dues to pay
I don’t look to the sky
For someone to lead the way
I’m hoping maybe my generation
Will be the change
Cos our elders came and talked a good game
But all have failed
So from my little corner
I shall vent
Speak power to truth and pray I don’t relent
We need to do it now
No more sitting on the fence
We need to Realize our queens
Are really our greatest strength
[Hook: Tomi Owo]
Every man, every woman
Call us by the name
We are human
We’re all looking for love
We’re all fighting our demons
We’re all dreaming the world, searching for a place to rest
We’re all looking for love
We’re all fighting our demons
We’re all dreaming the world, searching for a place to rest
