Write This Number Down Lyrics

Write this number down
You can call it anytime
We have been waiting for the day
That you would finally drop the dime

I praise the ones who persevere
In seeking justice through the law
I caution, there were those who felt
Abandoned and betrayed by what they saw

Some stood in halls of silence
With icy hints of violence
When they did seek justice through the law

I'm witness to the commons
And the institutions of the people's rule
The parents take their kids to local parks
And then their kids head off to school

You might see the same old story
Greed and profit's allegory
I see kids who go to school

A vote for one, a vote for all
A right to silence, one free call
You'll need a warrant for that

No, she won't sit in the back
And yes, we're still abolishing all slavery
Every kind of slavery

So write this number down
And know you won't slip through the cracks.
Look over your shoulder
There's millions of us there to get your backs

You can play a crucial part
Carry justice in your heart
And we'll be there to get your backs

Welcome to this land and yes, we still have
All those marble steps to climb
But write this number down
Because it's growing all the time
