We Need To Talk About It

Slavery
We need to talk about it We need to talk about it
I say Black Lives Matter
'Cause history says we don't
You're either a Christian or a racist
You can't be both
Verse 2
Slavery
We need to talk about it We need to talk about it
What does it say about America
What does it say about Africa
And what What does it say Say about all of us All of us
Verse 3
Whoever said time heals all wounds
Wasn't a slave, I'm guessing I'm guessing
Hundreds of years
That's just too long of a lesson We need to talk about it
What does it say about the buyer
And what does it say about the seller
And what What does it say Say about all of us All of us
Chorus
How does a ghost forgive We need to talk about it
How are we supposеd to live We need to talk about it
With 12 million taken
Not onе single reparation We need to talk about slavery
What does it say about forgiveness We need to talk about it
What does it say about compassion We need to talk about slavery
About justice and about fairness We need to talk about slavery
About the law and the land We need to talk about it
About then
What does it say about now We need to talk about slavery
