By Any Means - Jorja Smith

So go ahead and fix your crown

Then watch it all burn in smoke

Go ahead and stand your ground

We're on the long road to freedom

Too much time tryna figure out why

Too much time to be patient

All this time you be feeding us lies

Ain't no truth in your statements

Too much pain in these little white lies

You left here

All this time tryna figure out how

We're still here

I take pride in the things that we've done

Side by side in the revolution

Won't stay silent for things that I love

'Cause we know dem nuh care about us

White men can't jump but at least they can run

Broke these chains just to put our hands up

They could never see the kingdom coming

You wanna see us all amount to nothing

I can see your face, see the light in your eyes

I can see the change, feel the heat of the fire

If you can feel the pain then you know you're alive

Both feet on the line

By any means I will fight

For you, for you

Oh no, by any means I will fight

For you, for you

By any means I will fight

For you, for you

By any means I will fight

For you, for you

I've spent too many days in my head now

Did you think we would forget how?

Too many destinies, too many sentences

Read now

Read now, see all this pain in the headlines

But I have cried for the last time

But know what happens, see

You would be blind if it was just an eye for an eye

And what if we change the world

We rise from the flames the victor

It's far from a perfect picture

I know we sinful but we are human

Would you be grateful if you took my place?

Say my name (Say my name)

There is redemption in the steps we take

Say one life and I'm gonna use it

Innocent till I am proven

One last chance and you blew it

One last dance in the ruins

So much hate in your movements

Told me I couldn't prove it

One last prayer for the sinners

You only learn what you witnessed

I can see your face, see the light in your eyes

I can see the change, feel the heat of the fire

If you can feel the pain then you know you're alive

Both feet on the line

By any means I will fight

For you, for you

Oh no, by any means I will fight

For you, for you

No, by any means I will fight

For you, for you

By any means I will fight

For you, for you

I've spent too many days in my head now

Did you think we would forget how?

Too many destinies, too many sentences

Read now

Read now, see all this pain in the headlines

But I have cried for the last time

But know what happens, see

You would be blind if it was just an eye for an eye
