lyrics:


Dr. King spoke of dreams, but now it’s time to cash those checks,
Economic justice, for the years of neglect.


Four hundred years in chains, built this nation on our backs,
King said, ‘Cash the promissory note,’ but we got nothing but attacks.
They promised forty acres, but delivered nothing still,
System rigged against us, where’s the reparations bill?
Generations of wealth stolen, families torn apart,
King marched for our freedom, it’s time to play our part.


Cut the check, no more delays,
Others got their justice, it’s our time to be paid,
Japanese internment, Holocaust reparations,
Why we still waiting? This ain’t no negotiation.
Cut the check, or we won’t show,
No justice, no peace, no vote, you know.
Stand with King’s vision, fulfill the dream,
Reparations now, let freedom ring.


Countless missions made, with bravery untold,
Each journey a legend, in freedom's fold.
Breaking chains of bondage, hearts so bold,
In the face of danger, he remained controlled.
System built to hold us down, yet we rise,
King’s dream lives on, through unblinking eyes.
No more waiting, our demands are clear,
Reparations now, we’ll persevere.


Cut the check, no more delays,
Others got their justice, it’s our time to be paid,
Japanese internment, Holocaust reparations,
Why we still waiting? This ain’t no negotiation.
Cut the check, or we won’t show,
No justice, no peace, no vote, you know.
Stand with King’s vision, fulfill the dream,
Reparations now, let freedom ring.

Power to the people, we rise and we fight,
King’s dream lives on, in the dark, we bring light.
Reparations now, not a penny less,
Justice for our people, nothing more, nothing less.
Since '68 we’ve been pushing, now it's time to check,
For the dreams deferred, it's time to cut the check.
