about

'Standing With You' is an anthem of hope and solidarity.
The seeds of this song first took root at the beginning of the protests and social unrest that followed the death of George Floyd.
This track is meant to be uplifting in the hope that we can give a sense of urgency to shake any sense of complacency and to listen to each other with greater empathy.

The song's release day coincides with Bandcamp Friday, and all sales on this day will be going to organizations which support Black and Indigenous communities.

lyrics

V1.
Why does it seem like nothing has ever changed,
How do we break the cycle of hate and rage,
When will we honor justice for every man
Well, change won't come when power kneels
But we won't take a stand.

Chorus.
When you can't breathe, We're all hurting,
When you can't breath, you can't breathe, we're all dying,
Just know, I'll walk with you till the end,
I'm standing with you my friend.

V2.
How do we tip the scale of unequal weight
That says that your skin determines the hands of fate
When will you walk these streets without fear or blame
And who'll remember every single soul and say their name?

Chorus.
When you can't breathe, We're all hurting,
When you can't breath, you can't breathe, we're all dying,
Just know, I'll walk with you till the end,
I'm standing with you my friend.

Bridge:
I hear you brother, I see you sister, through winters of delay,
And I am listening, I am learning to fight for better days.

Chorus:
When you can't breathe, We'll arise and
We will speak for the voices they taken
Just know, we'll walk with you till the end,
And we're standing with you our friends.

Ending:
I hear you, I see you...
