From Shaka King’s powerful drama Judas and the Black Messiah comes Fight for You, by H.E.R. I loved the way this song flowed like a classic 70’s ballad. Below are the lyrics.
Enjoy!
Lyrics:
All the smoke in the air
Feel the hate when they stare
All the pain that we bear
Oh, you better beware
Their guns don’t play fair
All we got is a prayer
It was all in their plans
Wash the blood from your hands
Freedom for my brothers
Freedom ’cause they judge us
Freedom from the others
Freedom from the leaders, they’re keeping us
Freedom gon’ keep us strong
Freedom if you just hold on
Freedom ain’t free at all, no
I’m gon’ see it through
There’s no one, oh, there’s no one like you
Long as I’m standing, we could never lose
I’ma always, always fight for you
I’ma always, always fight for you
Mental institution
Causing so much confusion
Seems the only solution
Is a new revolution
We can’t take it no more
No, it can’t be ignored
When they knock down your door
Will you be ready for war?
Freedom ’cause they need us
Free from how they see us
Freedom won’t you free us
Freedom doesn’t hang from the trees
Freedom from injustice
Freedom from corruption
They aiming for destruction and you know
They gon’ see it through
There’s no one, oh, there’s no one like you
Long as I’m standing, we could never lose
I’ma always, always fight for you
I’ma always, always fight for you
See it through
There’s no one, there’s no one like you
I’ma always fight for you
For you, for you, fight for you
