From the recording Musicversal Appeal
Lyrics
You say the complaints are too many
Look at all the strides that you've made
Barack did not end the hate of my skin
The southern plan is still very much in play
Do you ever wonder why there is always pain
Well this is what I need from you
Switch your place with my life
Then you'll feel what we go through
Take on my life
Walk in my life
Wake in my life
Live in my life
You say we all protest too much
There's so much we have to change
As we speak it's getting worse
It's like it's 1964 again
It's like you can't understand
Or is it that you really don't care
What's done to one effects us all
Soon you'll face what we had to bare
Take on my life
Walk in my life
Wake in my life
Live in my life
All of our rights were stolen
All of our strides are frozen
Making it right we're chosen
Like from the start we're holding
