Man, don't let em feel powerless • I'm not sad I'm strong... oh • I won’t feel powerless • I won’t feel powerless • I won’t feel powerless • Thank you to my hero • Hope to meet you someday • Can anybody out there hear me • I hope somebody can hear me • Cause I don't wanna be here no more • One day, one day • Cause I don't wanna be here no more • One day, one day • We hope • Cause I don’t wanna be here no more • Shout out where my birth place is • And to the first nations • And to the people making the best out of the worst cases • Too many unanswered questions and open murder cases • Without a voice how we supposed to encourage changes? • My grandmother was part white and part native • In fact, my high school was part white and part native • Personally connected I met people who been affected • They been asking for some help but they been continually neglected • How many more of these indigenous women have to go missing • Before somebody will listen, huh? • We need to change the conditions maybe it's blatant racism • Maybe there’s hate in the system • But we gotta fix it • Cause the people feel powerless • And the mothers feel powerless • And the fathers feel powerless • Like don't anybody care about my daughter • Don't anybody care if she's alive or she been slaughtered • They deserve to know so they can go and bury her with honor • Big up to those fighting on and everybody fighting strong • I wish that I could do more than just write a song • I feel so powerless • I feel so powerless • I'm not sad I'm strong • It’s hard to be strong but don’t feel powerless • Don’t feel powerless • Don’t feel powerless • No, speak up • Thank you to my hero, hope to meet you someday • Can anybody out there hear me? • I hope somebody can hear me • Cause I don’t want to be here no more • One day, one day • Cause I don’t want to be here no more • One day, one day • (For some people, all they have is hope • Hopefully one day) • Cause I don’t want to be here no more • There’s a lot of things we don’t like talking about it • And we know we should be talking about it • This happens a lot more than what we think it does • Don’t let it make you feel powerless • One day, one day • One day, one day • Music video by Classified performing Powerless. © 2018 Halflife Records • http://vevo.ly/8jRhW5
