We On by WIN_BX Lyrics
[Intro]
Can’t stop us – we on. (we on)
Never gonna take out my light
Can’t stop us – we on. (we on)
Never fill my heart wit no fright
Can’t stop us – we on. (we on)
Can’t limit me to the sky. (to the sky)
Can’t stop us – we on
[Chorus]
They can’t stop us – we on. (we on)
You can’t take away from my light. (my light, my light)
They can’t stop us – we on. (we on)
You could never fill my heart wit no fright. (no fright, no fright)
They can’t stop us – we on. (we on)
You can’t limit me to the sky. (the sky, the sky)
They can’t stop us – we on. (we on)
Every day is a blessing
[Bridge]
This is for them long days
When you’re doing all you can
Just to give yo best. (best, best)
It’s a different type of pressure
That you gettin from the oppressor
Who’s giving you no rest. (no god damn rest)
Just know you got a heart made of gold
And a diamond shinin bright inside your mind. (shine bright inside your mind)
Just believe, if you nurture any seed
It will grow
Just give it little time
[Verse]
Sticks and stones can break my bones
And these bullets
Might enter in my thoughts at any time. (any time)
On my way to school
If the world only knew
What was swirling all around
In my god damn mind. (god damn)
What my little brother told me
Up on the phone. (on the phone)
He asked me, so mad
“Why they can’t leave us alone? (leave us alone)
Can’t even hit the store
Without it feeling like a hunt.”
I gave him my answer
And like always, I kept it blunt
“Don’t be fooled
Because the hate is systematic
They tell you otherwise
But there’s a method to the madness
They’ll try to fool you
And gift you wit little action
So, now you’re subdued
To keep your mind all distracted
They want you in shame
When your reflection’s what you seein
But yo Blackness yo strength
Young man, it ain’t your weakness
Don’t ever let em
Try to normalize yo pain
Only thing you ever have to lose
Is your chains.” (Is you listenin?)
[Chorus]
They can’t stop us – we on. (we on)
You can’t take away from my light. (my light, my light)
They can’t stop us – we on. (we on)
You could never fill my heart wit no fright. (no fright, no fright)
They can’t stop us – we on. (we on)
You can’t limit me to the sky. (the sky, the sky)
They can’t stop us – we on. (we on)
Every day is a blessing
[Bridge]
This is for them long days
When you’re doing all you can
Just to give yo best. (best, best)
It’s a different type of pressure
That you gettin from the oppressor
Who’s giving you no rest. (no god damn rest)
Just know you got a heart made of gold
And a diamond shinin bright inside your mind. (shine bright inside your mind)
Just believe, if you nurture any seed
It will grow
Just give it little time
Can’t stop us – we on. (we on)
Never gonna take out my light
Can’t stop us – we on. (we on)
Never fill my heart wit no fright
Can’t stop us – we on. (we on)
Can’t limit me to the sky. (to the sky)
Can’t stop us – we on
[Chorus]
They can’t stop us – we on. (we on)
You can’t take away from my light. (my light, my light)
They can’t stop us – we on. (we on)
You could never fill my heart wit no fright. (no fright, no fright)
They can’t stop us – we on. (we on)
You can’t limit me to the sky. (the sky, the sky)
They can’t stop us – we on. (we on)
