The Celebration Song

 Let's Celebrate   Come on, Celebrate (4X)

Black Lives   Black Lives

Dragged here in chains from glory    The devil tried to break them down 

 But victory was the story in their eyes.    Dig if you will a people 

 Who overcame hateful souls.    And an oppression that was legal

And Still They Rise

 Let's Celebrate.  Come on, Celebrate (4X)

Black Lives   Black Lives

Daring to die for freedom.  From backwards ignorant minds

And country immersed in evil, and denial

Determined, chosen people   Your story must be told

From school, screen, streets and church steeples

And Still You Rise

 Let's Celebrate Come on, Celebrate (4X)

Black Lives
