Speak Up My Brother

(Praveen Vava)

This song tries to capture the iniquities faced by the minority race despite being born with same rights in the same land. The need to fight this bigotry and overcome the base instinct of racial prejudice.

Race race race,  
Breathing down my neck 
Run faster run harder,  
Race won't stop the chase 
Racy smile,  
Voice such a delight 
If she cross to the other side,  
Race'll skin our hide 
  
         Speak up my brother, speak up before time 
         Speak your peace, dignity and freedom ain't no crime. 
         Speak up my brother, speak up before time 
         Speak your peace, dignity and freedom ain't no crime. 
  
Glass ceiling, shut window,  
high fences hard floor, 
Race the another name  
for keys to the door. 
You made all that the dough  
you show all that gold 
Staying quiet  
not fighting the good fight 
You're just another can kicked down the road. 
  
         Speak up my brother, speak up before time 
         Speak your peace, dignity and freedom ain't no crime. 
         Speak up my brother, speak up before time 
         Speak your peace, dignity and freedom ain't no crime. 
  
Eating the same food 
Cooking the same dish 
Can't share a laugh Can't share a table  
Race in harmony a forlorn wish 
Fearing change, fence the home range 
Split the race and unite the same 
Load the gun take aim 
Shoot whoever feels unlike 
Shoot whoever looks not akin 
Race makes blind, fucking with your psyche 
The greed that sees only the colour of the skin. 
Myopic in its vision 
Race in such a short time 
Feels it owns, feels it's blessed  
Race one's sublime  
and every other's slime 
  
         Speak up my brother, speak up before time 
         Speak your peace, dignity and freedom ain't no crime.
