Speak out -- speak to me
say what we can see
you got to put it into words
the [bad word] of this time
make it all rhyme --

Sweat from your brow
is it really here and now?
can this be real emotion?
or a trick of your trade
game to be played?

Brothers and sisters, let us unite
Join in together, fight the good fight

Speak out -- speak to me
say what we can see
put it into words
the [bad word] of our time
make it all rhyme --

say all you have to, shout out in spite
I won't believe it - others just might
Brothers and sisters, let us unite
Join in together, fight the good fight
Speak out -- speak to me
say what we can see.
Speak out -- speak to me
say what we can see.
