Strong God

Mayday, mayday

The Earth is shaking

Who gon' save the babies

From another Bloody Sunday?

I'm singing mayday, mayday

They love me or they hate me

For my skin color

But you say I am your brother, yeah

The government keep lying to me

Telling me that they come to set the people free

But the power flows when you catch us on our knees

Heaven please, we're in a state of emergency

See, we need a strong God, yeah

We need the real God, yeah

The God with the resurrection power from the grave

To take away the hate, to heal the human race, yeah

We need a, we need a, we need a, we need a, we need a, we need a

We need a strong God

See, we need a, we need a, we need a, we need a, we need a, we need a

Yeah, yeah, yeah

Say mayday, mayday

They say the climate changin'

The poor people in the cold

But you keep preachin' to they soul

But we don't leave till everybody's free

And we won't sleep till everybody eats, yeah, yeah

Until lives matter

More than tithes matter, sing

The government keep lying to me

Telling me that they come to set the people free

But the power flows when you catch us on our knees

Heaven please, we're in a state of emergency

See, we need a strong God, real strong, yeah

We need a real God, yeah, yeah

The God with the resurrection power from the grave

To take away the hate, to heal the human race
