Lyrics
[Verse 1]
They took the names from our mouths
Tried to bury truth in the ground
But I know fire in my bones
I was born to take it back home
[Verse 2]
Hands in the field, hands on the chain
Still we rose through the hurt and the shame
You can't lock up a river for long
It finds a crack and it comes on strong
[Pre-Chorus]
Hear that rumble?
That's the line
Every stolen piece
We claim it tonight
[Chorus]
Cut the chains, cut the chains
We won't bow, we won't break
Cut the chains, cut the chains
Freedom born out of pain
Cut the chains, cut the chains
Hear us rise, hear us say
Cut the chains, cut the chains
We are still here today (still here today)
[Verse 3]
Grandmama said, "Keep your head high"
Even when the world said, "Kneel and die"
Now every scar is a drumbeat proud
We sing it loud, we sing it loud
[Bridge]
This is more than anger
This is breath
This is every soul
They tried to leave for less
[Chorus]
Cut the chains, cut the chains
We won't bow, we won't break
Cut the chains, cut the chains
Freedom born out of pain
Cut the chains, cut the chains
Hear us rise, hear us say
Cut the chains, cut the chains
We are still here today (still here today)

Style
Blues-soul with funky bounce groove, laid-back swing and clapping backbeat; verse rides a smoky minor vamp, pre-chorus opens with hand drums and stacked harmonies, chorus hits with horn stabs and call-and-response shouts. Lead vocal is gritty and intimate with doubled lines on the hook, ad-lib responses panned wide. Ear candy: slide-guitar glides into choruses, tape-stop lift before the bridge, crowd claps and tambourine spark on the final chorus. Mix is warm, punchy, and sweaty, bounce, funk, soul, blues
