Tekst piosenki:
They knew it couldn't happen from the start,
her family would always say that this would never last.
But the heart wants what the heart wants,
and of course they had to try.
Secrets and forbidden love for he was black and she was white.
There was nothing really to accept,
they were young and they still kept
Their secret relationship behind closed doors
She gave him what was once just hers, he took all of her flowers
This time it was different from just another score
Her mother couldn't understand, she was from another time.
She had the boy arrested and charged with another crime.
The crime was love he told the judge, he'd never give her up.
His sentencing was unjust, another story f_____ by racism
Social and racial taunt, this was our systems flaw.
Why can't you let this be? It's love when hearts run free.
And who are you to say keep him away.
The rich the same, except you have nothing left to gain...... just everything to lose.
He was gunned down at the courthouse, the time was 5 past 8.
She held him in her b_____ arms, her last few words were "stop the hate"
