〈Pre-Chorus〉Freedom for a few
Maybe if they look like you
Wooh-ooh-ooh-ooh, woah, wooh-wooh-wooh
Freedom for a few
Maybe if they like you
Wooh-ooh-ooh-ooh, woah, wooh-wooh-wooh
〈Chorus〉I said, how long will we keep on forgettin'?
How long? Keep on
I said, how long will we keep on forgettin'?
How long? Keep on
〈Verse 1〉Ketikoti, RMS
Black and Brown lives matter in the US
Gaza, Syria
Still slavery in Libya
The Kurds, the Uighurs in China
Myanmar and Nepal
What about Bosnia?
What about Afghanistan?
〈Pre-Chorus〉Freedom for a few
Maybe if they look like you
Wooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh, woah, wooh-wooh-wooh
Freedom for a few
Maybe if they like you
Wooh-ooh-ooh, wooh, oh-oh-oh
〈Chorus〉I said, how long will we keep on forgettin'?
How long? Keep on
I said, how long will we keep on forgettin'?
How long? Keep on
〈Verse 2〉Congo, Tigris, Sudan
It's like the whole world forgets Africans
Apartheid in the governments
Indigenous peoplе not relevant
What about the San, thе Aboriginals, Herero, Nama
First Nations, Amazonians, Polynesians, Indonesia?
Free West Papua
Free Palestina
〈Chorus〉I said, how long? How long will we keep on, keep on forgettin'?
How long? Keep on
I said, how long will we keep on, keep on forgettin'?
How long? Keep on
〈Verse 3〉There's a war on women every day
A hundred forty women slain every day
By their partners and family
'Cause we're still seen as property
And my Queer and Trans community
It's a warzone chronically
You see, Yemen is still hungry
Kids still in the streets over there in Greece
〈Bridge〉I said, how long will we keep on forgetting?
And, ooh, we forget to remember
It's all of us
We forget to remember
It's all of us
We forget to remember
〈Outro〉I said, how long will we keep on forgetting?
