LYRICS
I ain’t been dealt the best existence
But I sure ain’t seen the worst
I will stand with the resistance
Put my brothers and sisters first
I will march in the streets
I will stand against the river
I will fight in your name
‘Cause I know now it’s the only way
I know now it’s the only way
I don’t know your pain
But I wish that I could take it away
I see what they’ve done to you
I stand here defending you
They may try to take my choice
But they cannot take my voice no
I don’t know your pain (I don’t know your pain)
But I wish that I could take it away
They try to intimidate
Their dark cloud rains down in hate
They speak of their bigotry
But they do not speak for me
I don’t know your pain (I don’t know your pain)
But I wish that I could take it away take it away
I ain’t been dealt the best existence
But I sure ain’t seen the worst
I will stand with the resistance
Put my brothers and sisters first
I will march in the streets
I will stand against the river
I will fight in your name
‘Cause I know now it’s the only way
I know now it’s the only way
I know now it’s the only way
I don’t know your pain (I don’t know your pain)
But I wish that I could take it away, take it away
I don’t know your pain (I don’t know your pain)
But I wish that I could take it away
Oooo Ooooo Oooo Ooooo
