It's just a little something I made in appreciation to all the change agents sometime referred to as First Amendment Auditors. Thanks for everything you do. Don't stop! Always record the police.
Lyrics
Filmin' every interaction, you won’t let it slide
Keepin' officials in check, with nowhere to hide
It’s more than just a video, it’s people’s lives
Stand up for our rights, as the tension thrives
[Pre-Chorus]
With a steady hand, you document the scene (document)
Justice in your pocket, this ain't no dream (no dream)
Bringing awareness all across the land
[Pre-Chorus]
With a phone and a vision, setting truth free (set it free)
Amendments in action, the way it should be (should be)
[Chorus]
I’m saying thanks, for the transparency you live, fam
I’m saying thanks, for the accountability you give, fam
Yeah, yeah
I ain’t playin' games, fam, gotta spread the truth, yeah
Gon' shine a light so bright, they can't deny, yeah
Gon' show the rights tonight, the First Amendment fight
[Chorus]
I’m saying thanks, for every clip that captures lies, fam
I’m saying thanks, for keeping truth in the public’s eyes, fam
Yeah, yeah
[Sample Break]
You filming on, keep the lens on
Cause their acting ain't the same
And you keep on showing facts (oh!)
In the face of those who play (keep on filming...)
You're the watchmen in the night, gotta keep 'em straight, aight
You're the guardians of rights, bringing dark to light
Shout-out to the ones who hold the First so tight
[Chorus]
I’m saying thanks, for the stand that you taking, no fright
I’m saying thanks, for the justice you making, shine bright
Yo, yo
Shoot the scene, let it roll, no hesitation, keep it toll
Catch 'em out, expose the game, dropping truth, that's the aim
Standing firm, our constitution, film it all, be the solution
They can't hide, no more deceit, your lens and voice on the street
[Verse 2]
Documentin' every move, shine a light, watch 'em prove
Their own fault, their disgrace, camera's power in their face
In those tense moments, the sidewalk stage, yeah
Courage in your chest as you engage, yeah
Facin' down power, camera's rage, record the age
Where truth becomes the sage, spotlight on the cage
[Chorus]
We sayin' thanks, for the courage in the combat, stand tall
We sayin' thanks, for every truth you pull from the wall
