Tell Your Story Lyrics by JJ Harris

2020

[Verse 1:]
Going back on my childhood
Reminiscing about past days
Giving God praise everyday
That I even made it this far
You know how people are
But black people, one day
We will stand and not be detained
Or fail to mention the abuse
And contradictions they had used
To hold us back and then refuse
To act like they ain’t left them bruises
Nah, nah, nah
[Verse 2:]
Those scars left on humanity
Things they’d done, insanity
Abstractedly beat on
My brothers and sisters
But baby, racism is trending
Still today, today
[Hook:]
Tell your story
Tell your story
Tell your story
(All you gotta do is)
Tell your story
Tell your story
Tell your story
[Verse 3:]
Had to flashback on
Some things I recently passed
'Cause I can’t let them go no more
I’ve been suffering in silence
All because of the color of my skin
Yes, It’s violent out here
In these streets (in these streets)
They don’t care about you and your peace
Stay woke, prayed up
Get with God, wake up
'Cause this ain’t no joke
That’s why you got to
[Hook:]
Tell your story
Tell your story
Tell your story
(All you gotta do is)
Tell your story
Tell your story
Tell your story
See how God places
Events in order for you to
[Hook:]
Tell your story
Tell your story
Tell your story
(All you gotta do is)
Tell your story
Tell your story
Tell your story
[Outro:]
Is my skin a weapon to you?
Does my body somehow offend you?
All because I don’t like you
You decide to aim and then shoot?
Is my skin a weapon to you?
Does my body somehow offend you?
All because I don’t like you
You decide to aim and then shoot?
