resnate - the stance كلمات الأغنية

[intro: colin kaepernick]
i think it’s something that can unify this country
if we have these real conversations that, are uncomfortable for a lot of people
if we have these conversations, there’s a better understanding where both sides are coming from
and if we reach common ground, and can understand what everybody’s going through
we can really affect change and make sure everybody’s treated equally and has the same freedom

[verse 1: resnate]
it’s been a couple seasons now
since kaep went down on his knee
wouldn’t stand for murder of the black & brown
a simple protest to raise awareness
tired of people bein’ like mike
and i’m not talk’n ’bout “his airness”
it didn’t take long for brows to raise
it didn’t take long for rage to spew from out the powdered faced
and i’ll admit, i was a bit annoyed
can’t we just talk about football?
“i’m not a fan of harbaugh’s golden boy”
‘cuz i never really liked colin
public enemy number 1 in seattle
back when the hawks we’re ballin’
but what i saw from others was something else
inflammatory misdirection
deflecting blame to protect themselves
someone mentioned our veterans, so the media pounced
the league scrambles
and pence releases tweets as he bounced
as the wealthy and powerful plot and pull out all the stops
terence crutcher pulls out nothing
gets shot and k!lled by the cops (d_mn)
[chorus: resnate]
there’s something happening here
but with so many distractions, it ain’t exactly clear
there’s a man with a gun over there
he’s got a uniform and smiles, so no one seems to care
there’s something happening here
but with so many distractions, it ain’t exactly clear
there’s a man on his knees over there
everybody’s got an opinion, but no one seems to care

[verse 2: resnate]
maybe not standing for the anthem threatens the usa
maybe the rich think they own the people that they pay
maybe kneeling is worse than sending soldiers to die
maybe we hate being reminded that racism still thrives
whatever the cause, divisiveness was unnecessary
does anyone really think these players hate the military?
queue trumplethinskin pulling a copperfield
demanding they get that son of a b_tch off the field
but the league was defiant
like a moment of clarity
owners and players locking arms in solidarity
it all felt like a victory
turned out to be a smokescreen
orchestrated by the combover in chief
sleight of hand by the slightest man
publicly they defied him
privately the owners obeyed trump’s command
‘cuz kaepernick never saw the field again
white_balled by a threatened group of friends
with a spiteful message to send
[chorus: resnate]
there’s something happening here
but with so many distractions, it ain’t exactly clear
there’s a man with a gun over there
he’s got a uniform and smiles, so no one seems to care
there’s something happening here
but with so many distractions, it ain’t exactly clear
there’s a man on his knees over there
everybody’s got an opinion, but no one seems to care

[verse 3: resnate]
priority number 1, make number 7 an afterthought
biggest threat to the powerful
a man that can’t be bought
with colin silenced, the movement begins to split
and protestors get offered 90 million reasons to quit
the players had leverage
and a seat at the table
that was until the brotherhood started looking like cain and abel
watching malcolm and eric go at it filled me with sadness
a house divided falls, and i know they understand this but
jerry’s got all his players standing, toes on the line
prisoners ain’t running the prison
slave owners are doing fine
as the frustration peaks, that’s when kaepernick speaks
sacrificing everything is part of standing for your beliefs
and his sacrifice
has left a residual
90 million makes a difference
kenny stills remains visible
maybe it’s too early to say the opportunity’s gone
‘cuz the night is always darkest right before the dawn
when you first step into the light
you can’t see much
squinting in pain, vulnerable, as your eyes try to adjust
it’s only once you see clearly you understand why it’s worth it
respect to colin kaepernick, living life with a purpose
[outro: colin kaepernick]
that’s something that needs to change
that’s something that…ya know
this country stands for freedom, liberty, justice for all
and it’s not happening for all right now
