Let My People Go Lyrics

When I walk down the street everybody that I meet seems to be calling my name
but what can you do when they just stare at you tell me aren't we the same
(chorus) let my people go let my people go Hey aren't you like me tell me why
can't they see a man's a man in this land yeah I lived my life I never think
twice always doin' what I can (chorus) I pledge allegiance to the flag that's
what they taught me in school but you walk down the street saying where's their
allegiance to me, then they treat you like a fool. yeah things must change they
can't remain the same at least that's what people say yeah things must change
well you can change your name it won't help you anyway (chorus
