Verse 1
They bury our stories, try to keep us down,
Erase our existence from their high-rise towns.
But we still here, scars deep in the earth,
Each soul that’s gone, gives our struggle its worth.
They paint us as shadows, like we never breathed,
Just numbers in a ledger, the lives they thieved.
Our history's written in the tears and the blood,
But we rise from the ashes, we rise from the mud.
Concrete jungles built on graves and bones,
We inherit the pain, we inherit the stones.
But we’ll shout from the mountains, scream to the sky,
We carry the names of the ones who died.
Chorus
They tried to silence us, but we sing for the lost,
Each word we spit, for every life that it cost.
We’re the voices of the fallen, echoes that stay,
Against hate, against death, every beat’s our pay.
Verse 2
They think we forget, but we keep the flame,
Each life, each love, every lost name.
From nations divided, ripped apart by greed,
They ignore our pleas, but we plant the seed.
Walls rise, cities built over stolen dreams,
But they can’t erase the sound of their screams.
From the land of the free to the shores overseas,
We breakin’ their chains, we’re down on our knees.
But not for surrender, no beggin’ for grace,
We’re prayin’ for strength to face this disgrace.
Reclaimin’ the stories, they swept in the dark,
We’re bringin’ the fire, we’re bringin’ the spark.
Chorus
They tried to silence us, but we sing for the lost,
Each word we spit, for every life that it cost.
We’re the voices of the fallen, echoes that stay,
Against hate, against death, every beat’s our pay.
Bridge
For every mother that weeps, every child that’s gone,
We’re callin’ for justice, marchin’ at dawn.
No one left behind, no memory erased,
We paint the sky with names they replaced.
We’re the power of millions they couldn’t kill,
With every beat, every word, every will.
We’re the rebels, the fighters, the hope of the past,
Standin’ in the fire, makin’ this last.
Verse 3
They tell us to move on, to forgive and forget,
But we’re scarred, and we’re scarred with a lifetime of debt.
These losses ain’t numbers, these names ain’t stone,
We carry ‘em high, in every word we’ve sown.
They don’t get our rage, they don’t get our cries,
But we see the truth in the leaders’ lies.
Each child that’s lost, every family torn,
From the ashes of genocide, we’re reborn.
So let ‘em try to hide, let ‘em try to lie,
We’re the ones who remember, the ones who defy.
Standin’ for justice, the peace they deny,
With each beat of the drum, we rise, we fly.
Outro/Chorus
They tried to silence us, but we sing for the lost,
Each word we spit, for every life that it cost.
We’re the voices of the fallen, echoes that stay,
Against hate, against death, every beat’s our pay.
(Outro Refrain)
For the lost, for the brave, for every single name,
We’ll sing to the world till they feel our flame.
