Lyrics
Nowhere to stand... nowhere to run... your black life ain't worth the bullet... from some damn policeman's gun
Nowhere to stand... nowhere to run...
One mother’s tears have barely dried... when it's another's turn to cry... nowhere to run
Damned in the shade... damned in the sun... your black life ain't worth the bullet... from another black man’s gun
Damned in the shade... damned in the sun...
One sister's tears have barely dried... when it's another's turn to cry... nowhere to run
When is it over?... When are we done?... When will MY life equal YOUR life... while we ALL just live as one?
When is it over?... When are we done?...
One daughter's tears have barely dried... when it's another's turn to cry... nowhere to run
One mother’s tears have barely dried... when it's another's turn to cry... nowhere to run
One sister's tears have barely dried... when it's another's turn to cry... nowhere to run
One daughter's tears have barely dried... when it's another's turn to cry... nowhere to run
