Liberation
Ernesto Melchor
Verse 1
Em C
I’m in pain, living in misery
G D
Won’t you do something about it? Please do something about it!
Em C
You say I’m different, so you treat me lesser than
G D
But you are so wrong about me Yes, you are so wrong about me
Because I’m like you. I feel pain, love, too.
I’m you but in a different body, Yet there’s still life inside my body
Let me be free, Freedom from your tyranny
It’s all I’ve ever wanted It’s all I’ve ever wanted
Chorus:
G C
Liberation
Gmaj6/D C
For the animals
G C
Liberation
Gmaj6/D C
Because we are all animals
D
We’re all animals!
Verse 2:
Go on, be brave. Go out there, make history
And bring justice to my life, love. Bring justice to the lives lost
Because every day They will try to convince you
That humane murder is justified But believe me...I don’t want to die
But I’m at your mercy And you are the difference
Be the voices of the silenced End the silence, stop the violence!
And organize Mobilize
Speak up for the defenseless Without you, we’re defenseless
Chorus
Bridge
Gmaj6/D
Fear is
C Bm7
What drives harmful behavior
Gmaj6/D
Let love guide you towards justice
C
On this day, yeah
Gmaj6/D
Because I want
C
To be happy, safe, and free
Bm7
Just be happy, safe, and free
Bm9
Everyday! Ooh, yeah
Chorus
