Em
This is no time for
C
doubting, to
Em
stop and wonder
C
why
Em
This is a time for
Am
shouting, "I
Bm
don't believe the
Em
lies!"
Em
One way or a
C
nother,
Em
no one will be
C
spared
Em
I call out to my
Am
brothers, "Does not
Bm
anybody
Em
care?"

Em
Conspiracy of
C
silence, the
Em
enemy with

in

Complacency and
Am
arrogance make us

only just be

gun!
Chorus
  
They
Em
try to break our
C
spirits, they try to
Em
keep us in our
C
place
  
They
Em
do it to the

women and the
Bm
poor of every

race
  
We

face a common

bigotry and
C
greed
  
But

if we fight to

find the strength we
Am
need
