I saw myself in Memphis
Drifting in and out of the corridors of the old Lorraine Motel
I saw myself standing on the balcony
Where Dr King drew his last breath
Looking in the distance
Searching for what hates us
For what fears our light so much
It resolves to extinguish us

From Kashmir to Kabul
To Charlottesville and Standing Rock
To every piece of Earth
That crumbles under the poison of colonization
To every false borderland
Where papers and pipelines dictate who belongs
Wherever their livelihoods are being crushed out of their bodies

I saw myself in Memphis
Drifting in and out of the corridors of the old Lorraine Motel
I heard a freedom song playing
And it sounded so familiar:
I ain’t gonna let nobody
Turn me around
Turn me around
Turn me around
I ain’t gonna let nobody
Turn me around
I’m gonna keep on walking
Keep on talking
Marching onto freedom land…
