Lyrics
[Intro]
[stomps and claps start, crowd hum]
Hey, hey
You hear that?
(that rumble)
That’s us
[Verse 1]
Old men on the TV
Pointing fingers, drawing lines
Selling fear like candy
Saying “these are dangerous times”
But my neighbor brings me soup
Speaks another tongue than mine
And I trust that kitchen table
More than any lying sign
[Pre-Chorus]
They wanna make us small
Keep us scared, keep us apart
But I see you in the doorway
Same fire, same heart
[Chorus]
Hands in the air if you’re done being silent
(shout it)
We won’t bow down to the cruel and the violent
Linking our arms, yeah we’re breaking the chains
You can try to rule, but you won’t own our names
Oh-oh, oh-oh, sing it clear and loud
We are the many, you don’t get our ground
Hands in the air, every voice, every city
This is our power, unity against their tyranny
[Verse 2]
They draw crooked borders
Through classrooms and through beds
Tell us who to be afraid of
While they steal the daily bread
But we’re marching with our grandmas
With the kids up on our backs
All the colors, all the stories
They can’t edit out the facts
[Pre-Chorus]
They circle us with fences
Ink and laws and guns and lies
But we’re bigger than their symbols
We’re the look in each other’s eyes
[Chorus]
Hands in the air if you’re done being silent
(shout it)
We won’t bow down to the cruel and the violent
Linking our arms, yeah we’re breaking the chains
You can try to rule, but you won’t own our names
Oh-oh, oh-oh, sing it clear and loud
We are the many, you don’t get our ground
Hands in the air, every voice, every city
This is our power, unity against their tyranny
[Bridge]
[beat drops to snaps and stomps]
Who’s your neighbor? (that’s my friend)
Who’s your sister? (I defend)
Who’s your brother? (take my hand)
We don’t break, we expand
Call my name, I’ll call out yours
We’re the tide against their wars
From the kitchen to the square
We’re the answer to despair
[Chant]
Hey! Hey! We stand up!
Hey! Hey! We stand up!
No crown, no throne, no iron fist
Can erase the love in this
[Chorus]
Hands in the air if you’re done being silent
(shout it)
We won’t bow down to the cruel and the violent
Linking our arms, yeah we’re breaking the chains
You can try to rule, but you won’t own our names
Oh-oh, oh-oh, sing it clear and loud
We are the many, you don’t get our ground
Hands in the air, every voice, every city
This is our power, unity against their tyranny
[Outro]
[crowd singing the hook a cappella]
Oh-oh, oh-oh, unity
Oh-oh, oh-oh, you and me
Style

Prompt
Fast paced pop music, female vocals leading, chants, stomps, claps, snaps, big stadium chorus, about anti-fascism and tyranny trying to rule the country, and we have to join hands in unity.
