Stand Silent ft. Jon Connor Lyrics by Candice Pillay

2020

[Intro]
Yeah
This is our streets
[Verse 1]
We da kids with the slick tongues running our mouths all day
Cause we got a lot to say
Oh we walk with our heads up high
We don't back down no
We don't go down easy
[PreChorus]
Roll out, run it down
Roll out (hear me)
Roll out, run it down
Roll out (go)
Roll out, run it down
Roll out (hear me)
Roll out, run it down
Roll out (go)
[Chorus]
We will not stand, we will not stand
We will not stand, we will not stand silent
We will not stand, we will not stand
We will not stand, we will not stand silent
We will not stand, we will not stand
We will not stand, we will not stand silent
[Verse 2]
Where were you when we asked for our freedom?
Where were you when we stand for our people?
No justice no peace
No racist police
How can we live life if we cannot breathe?
We still bring our love to your gunfight
We just want our children to live life
We will not forget we will not hide
We will not stand silent no
[Chorus]
We will not stand, we will not stand
We will not stand, we will not stand silent
We will not stand, we will not stand
We will not stand, we will not stand silent
[Verse 3: Jon Connor]
Look
How many times can we look at haters and victimless crime
What are you blind?
You think it's cool to be foolish and mistreat a human cause your skin is different than mine?
That isn't how we're designed
Can't make a difference 'til we unify
It ain't gon' never get better 'til we make an effort to see it through each of those eyes
I wanna tell my nephew yes you special don't let ignorance get you Down to the point you feel like god forgot to bless you he might test you
And when that happens that's when you gotta stand up and be your best you
Even if they don't accept you try to arrest you fight 'till they make 'em respect you
Boy don't let it depress you
Girl don't let 'em oppress you
Even if people reject you
The hatred don't have to reflect you
Pick yo' head up you got so much light inside of that vessel
All my people rise up even in times when it's like the world against you
So no more silence no more tryna hide all the pain inside us
No more cryin' and people dyin' over racism and senseless violence
I'm gonna use my voice
Nah I ain't got no choice
We won't bend and we won't break
All my people lemme hear you say
[PreChorus]
Roll out, run it down
Roll out (hear me)
Roll out, run it down
Roll out (go)
Roll out, run it down
Roll out (hear me)
Roll out, run it down
Roll out (go)
[Chorus]
Can you feel it?
We will not stand, we will not stand
We will not stand, we will not stand silent
We will not stand, we will not stand
We will not stand, we will not stand silent
We will not stand, we will not stand
We will not stand, we will not stand silent
