Power (Say Her Name) Lyrics by ​iyla

EMPIRE Presents: Voices For Change, Vol. 1

2020

[Verse 1]
I say what I want and I'm honest
We won't forget what you've cost us
Was flyin' away now she's fallin'
We're callin', it off cause
Eight shots to a soul is ungodly
You drained all the life from her body
And out of vain but it's falsely
Her problem it's not
[Pre-Chorus]
And she'd never hurt, no one like you could
Bree can't move on or walk away just like you would
Like you could
[Chorus]
Hands on our hearts, it's your final hour
We take back your power
Take back your power
Don't say a word, your silence is louder
So we take back your power
And lift her in power
[Verse 2]
We yell Black Lives Matter, you scream "All Lives"
But our lives are valued two times while her daddy died
There's no excuse to use abuse, construe and make the truth a lie
The brutalize, criminalize, disenfranchise and try to justify
[Pre-Chorus]
She'd never hurt no one
And Bree can't move on
Or walk away just like you could (Oh na-na, oh na-na-na)
[Chorus]
Hands on our hearts, it's your final hour (It's your final hour)
We take back your power
Take back your power (Take it back)
You don't say word (No word), white silence is louder (White silence is louder)
So we take back your power (We take it back)
And lift her in power
[Outro]
Say her name, Breonna Taylor
Say her name, Breonna Taylor
Say her name, Breonna Taylor
