He Planned Us - Can't Say Jesus

Freedom
Need 'em, always tryna please 'em
Freedom
Beatin' while we're tryna heal 'em
Freedom
Speakin', are we really speakin
They say we all have our freedom
Can't say Je-shhh

Freedom
Preachin' only when it's sweetened
Freedom
Teachin' is only for the seein'
Freedom
Hidden, right inside our vision
Stand up and they take our freedom
Can't say Je-shhh

Stand up
Can you lift your hands up
Stand up
Let me lift your hands up
Stand up
They want us to give up
But we ain't backing down
No we ain't backing down
Got us lifting up our hands in the air

Stand up
Can you lift your hands up
Stand up
Let me lift your hands up
Stand up
They want us to give up
But we ain't backing down
No we ain't backing down
Got us lifting up our hands in the air

Freedom
Dying, in the womb they cryin'
Freedom
Fighting, to the left they tryin'
Freedom
Failing, boy or girl they playin
They don't wanna lift the chains they're swinging
Can't say Jesus
Freedom
School kids, now they tryna fool kids
Freedom
Idols, turn 'em suicidal
Freedom
Save 'em while they tryna play 'em
Hands up and they take our freedom
Can't say Jesus

Stand up
Can you lift your hands up
Stand up
Let me lift your hands up
Stand up
They want us to give up
But we ain't backing down
No we ain't backing down
No

Stand up
Can you lift your hands up
Stand up
Let me lift your hands up
Stand up
They want us to give up
But we ain't backing down
No we ain't backing down
Got us lifting up our hands in the air

We freedom talkin', freedom walkin
They know who we are
But what they don't see is the love that healed these battle scars
I fought depression, anxiety had me trapped in bars
Emotionful, emotionless
Confused emoticons
Freedom isn't what we preach, it is who we are
This freedom I know I didn't find in celebrities
Take my identity with social remedies
Media got the enemy selling my body
Like it's their property
Honesty ain't their policy
All they want is your money but just know
Freedom isn't what we preach
It is who we are

Stand up
Can you lift your hands up
Stand up
Let me lift your hands up
Stand up
They want us to give up
But we ain't backing down
No we ain't backing down
Freedom isn't what we preach
It is who we are

Stand up
Can you lift your hands up
Stand up
Let me lift your hands up
Stand up
They want us to give up
But we ain't backing down
No we ain't backing down
Freedom isn't what we preach
It is who we are
