Concentrate,
Concentrate,
Concentrate on what is happening,
Look at the world around you
People are dying,
People are rioting,
The world around us is collapsing.

Abused power
Used against those
that it swore to protect,
How can people still be treated the same as they were,
50 years ago,
60 years ago,
70 years ago?
Was all the work in vain?

What would our ancestors say,
If they looked out and saw,
The world they fought for,
The world some of them died for,
Tearing each other to pieces,
Over something as trivial as skin colour.

Concentrate,
Concentrate,
Concentrate on what I am saying,
People are leading,
People are protesting,
Concentrate,
Concentrate.

An innocent life taken,
Another gunshot,
A criminal allowed to walk away home,
While others walk to a grave.

Burning in the streets,
The world as we know it ablaze,
Fiery talons grasping at everything they can,
People forced to leave their homes,
People forced to stay with strangers.

In a world where so much has gone wrong,
Where so much has happened,
Can there really be a happy ending?

Concentrate,
Concentrate,
You can make a difference,
We can make a difference,
Concentrate,
Concentrate,

Concentrate on what I say,
Concentrate on the fact that children are being murdered,
Concentrate on the fact that not all police are evil,
Concentrate on the fact that black lives matter.

Concentrate,
Concentrate,
Concentrate with me,
We are all equal,
We are all one,
We all deserve to live this life the same
No matter the colour of our skin,
Concentrate,
Concentrate,
Concentrate with me.
