Lyrics:
Will you rise up when your comfort is in jeopardy
Will you resist justifying the complexity
Is simplicity convenient in your quest to pacify
When you look in the mirror, can you see your own disguise

Can we sing a song for you
Will music move your heart and mind
Will our song arrest you
American silence is a crime

We see the music move you as you lay your burden down
We feel the music grip you as your heart is soaked in sound
And when the song is over, if you decide to clap aloud
Will your applause mean anything with stitches on your mouth

Can we sing a song for you
Will music move your heart and mind
Will our song arrest you
American silence is a crime

We sing for the freedom, we fight for all it's worth
We sing for humanity so we can all walk the earth
We sing with honor to let us sing another song
We sing through the pain and we keep on marching on

Can we sing a song for you
Will music move your heart and mind
Will our song arrest you
American silence is a crime

American silence
American silence is a crime
