Intro
Verse 1
They Came In The Night, Boots Heavy And Bold,
Knockin’ On Doors Like The Stories Of Old.
Said It Was Legal, Said It Was Right,
But Freedom Don’t Bloom In The Dead Of The Night.
Chorus
This Land Don’t Stand For Raids Or Fear,
Not In L.a., Not Down Here.
From The Fields Of Fresno To The San Fran Bay,
We Won’t Be Silent, We Won’t Look Away.
Verse 2
They Took The Father, They Took The Son,
No Warrant Shown, Just Badge And Gun.
Children Cryin’, Mothers Plead,
While Men In Suits Sow Hate And Greed.
Verse 3
They Sent The Guard With Tear Gas Spray,
Like Germany’s Ghost Come Back Today.
A Mayor Weeps, A Preacher Prays,
But The Tyrant Tweets And Fans The Blaze.
Chorus
This Land Don’t Stand For Boots On Necks,
For Flags Of Fear Or Racial Checks.
From Boyle Heights To Old Watts Lane,
We Rise Like Thunder, We Shout Their Names.
Bridge
Karen And Gavin, They Tried To Fight,
But D.c. Storms With "Law And Might."
Still Woody Whispers In The Wind,
"This Land Was Made For All, My Friend."
Verse 4
So Play Your Guitar, Raise Your Sign,
Stand With The Broken Left Behind.
We’ve Seen This Movie, We’ve Heard This Song,
But Truth And Love Still Roll Along.
Final Chorus
This Land Don’t Stand For Fear And Chains,
Or Roundups Done For Power Games.
From Every Border To Every Shore,
We’ll Stand Together — And Close That Door.
