Em
Nobody ever told you you could live up
D
To anything you want, don't give up
Em
D
They rather tell you, you're
Em
Dm
destined for failure
That's what they tell you
But you just say
Am
What about Martin?
Em
What about Garvey?
What about Rosa?
What about Malcolm?
What if somebody told them
Dm
they would never be nothin'
And they believed this,
think about the outcome
Am
Em
Would we even be the way we are today?
Even if it weren't,
could have been a harder way
Even though we lost a lot
of people on the way

Dm
And they got us thinking something

Em
better we don't deserve
And that you shouldn't try, it's no use
Dm
But that couldn't be further
from the truth
Don't believe it,

As a reminder of the people

D
So the dreams that I had
turned to nightmares
Em
Dm
Em
Is this thing called life really fair
Need help but it ain't there
Am
So you know it's really hard
Em
to stay dedicated
When the ballers screaming
they was never educated
On the corner getting high just
Dm
to medicate it
'Cause the teachers just told
him he would never make it
Am
Now he feeling like he made
Em
it 'cause he stackin' paper
But probably won't let him
spend the money later
Nobody ever told us we could
Dm
be greater
To everybody on the grind
and the paper chasers
Am
I hope you listen
