Against Life and Death
Pre verse:
Can we just say
Why do we care so much
When we get hurt
And we don’t have a voice
Cause we have never had a chance
V1:
Life is so dangerous
Can’t you believe
Every step is like walking
Through the depth of a forest
Our hearts on the line
Chorus:
It’s just life against death
We can’t just stand back
From the discrimination
We have so many choices
Taken away cause we not the same
I’m lost I just can’t believe
Nobody listening like before
Our lives matter just as much
We deserve the same care
As so many people get
Let’s not be defined
By our skin color or culture
V2:
Why is so many people
Just face it off, while we are
Just stuck in the ditch, walked over
I want my voice back
So many decades lost
Chorus:
It’s just life against death
We can’t just stand back
From the discrimination
We have so many choices
Taken away cause we not the same
I’m lost I just can’t believe
Nobody listening like before
Our lives matter just as much
We deserve the same care
As so many people get
Let’s not be defined
By our skin color or culture
V3:
So much has taken time
From listening to celebrating
The qualities we share, can’t help
Think of the sad news we see on the news
That continues to hurt us
Bridge:
Can’t say anything
Anything that makes us different
Cause you make judgments
Nothing is the same
We’re praying for acceptance
Chorus:
It’s just life against death
We can’t just stand back
From the discrimination
We have so many choices
Taken away cause we not the same
I’m lost I just can’t believe
Nobody listening like before
Our lives matter just as much
We deserve the same care
As so many people get
Let’s not be defined
By our skin color or culture
V4:
We have spoken against death
Nothing stopping us now
From taking control like we should
I have never seen so much love
From a world parted by words
Chorus:
It’s just life against death
We can’t just stand back
From the discrimination
We have so many choices
Taken away cause we not the same
I’m lost I just can’t believe
Nobody listening like before
Our lives matter just as much
We deserve the same care
As so many people get
Let’s not be defined
By our skin color or culture
