Lyrics

[INTRO]
In the shadow of the past, where the pain still goes,
A tale of struggle, a story that unfolds.
From the depths of hate, we rise and reclaim,
Jim Crow's legacy, we won't bear the shame.

[VERSE 1]
Down in the South, where the rivers run deep,
Divided they stood, while the silence would creep.
Laws etched in stone, segregate their despair,
But the heart of the people, it thrived everywhere.
Old signs hanging high, with the words “White Only,”
But love knows no color, it shone like a trophy.

[CHORUS]
Oh Jim Crow, your shadows can’t bind us,
Through the struggle and pain, we’ll find a way to rise.
Voices united, breaking through the chains,
We’ll remember your story, but freedom remains.

[VERSE 2]
Marching for justice, with our spirits ablaze,
Through fire and through fury, we will stand and face.
With a dream in our hearts and a vision so clear,
We’ll shatter the silence, drown out the fear.
In every child’s laughter, in the rise of their song,
A future together, where we all belong.

[CHORUS]
Oh Jim Crow, your shadows can’t bind us,
Through the struggle and pain, we’ll find a way to rise.
Voices united, breaking through the chains,
We’ll remember your story, but freedom remains.

[BRIDGE]
And in every brick laid, every field we’ve toiled,
The history etched deep, but our spirit unspoiled.
No more divisions, we’ll stand hand in hand,
A kaleidoscope of hope, for a brighter land.

[CHORUS]
Oh Jim Crow, your shadows can’t bind us,
Through the struggle and pain, we’ll find a way to rise.
Voices united, breaking through the chains,
We’ll remember your story, but freedom remains.

[OUTRO]
So here’s to the future, let’s sing it out loud,
With courage and love, let’s make our hearts proud.
From the ashes of sorrow, new dreams will unfold,
Together we’ll shine, like a light to behold.
