about

The original version of this song was written for Trayvon Martin who was murdered by George Zimmerman. Sadly, it's still fucking relevant. This is an updated take for 2020.

lyrics

Blood lines drawn in the sand
Shades of skin such a bone
of contention
Blood lines drawn in the stone
History hovers and groans

A thousand years, nothing’s changed!
It’s all too little, too late

Everyone that’s in charge
offers lip service, lies and
denials
Evil hearts never rest
Evil sits in an ice chest

A thousand years, nothing’s changed
It’s all too little, too late
Can anyone save our fate?

No justice, no peace!

Blood lines drawn in the sand
Shades of skin such a bone
of contention
Blood lines drawn in the stone
History hovers and groans

A thousand years, nothing’s changed!
It’s all too little, too late
Can the kids save our fate?
If we don't teach them to hate.
