lyrics
Take a Knee (lyrics by Cassady Laton)
It’s hard for me to try to explain it,
Harder even still to try to justify it,
But I do know we must never normalize it-
Some people will write about it,
Some people will cry about it,
But we must never normalize it…
Never forget how we got here,
And never forget that we are here,
Never forget how we got here,
And never forget that we are here.
So raise your fist, but don’t block out the sun,
Better to take a stand and kneel than to run.
After all, sometimes those that kneel stand taller than all of us
You can learn a lot from the mistakes of the past,
But can you learn from the mistakes of the present?
Never forget how we got here,
And never forget that we are here,
Never forget how we got here,
And never forget that we are here.
So raise your fist but don’t block out the sun,
Better to take a stand and kneel than to run.
After all, sometimes those that kneel stand taller than all of us
