G D
They told me, "Be a man, boy, toughen up"

Am C
And now weʼre too old, and too white
G D
Youʼre either too left, or too right
Am C
Well, weʼre speakinʼ our minds tonight
Chorus:
G D Em C
ʼCause you canʼt cancel all of us, youʼre more than wеlcome to try
G D Em C
But you canʼt cancel all of us, ʼcause wеʼre standinʼ here side by side
G D Em C
And you canʼt cancel all of us, ʼtill you earn the stars and stripes
G D Em C
But you canʼt cancel all of us, ʼcause the internet ainʼt real life
Verse:
G D
They told me, "Be a man, boy, just like your dad"

but mine makes me racist", got it
Pre-chorus:
G D
We were always too weak, and too afraid

Youʼre either too real, or too fake
Am C
Well, weʼre speakinʼ our minds today
Chorus:
G D Em C
ʼCause you canʼt cancel all of us, youʼre more than wеlcome to try

G D Am C
You can take my job away for something I may have said online,
G D Am C

And you can call me every name, that you might think will hurt my pride
G D Am C
But if you think youʼre stopping me, youʼre out your mind
Chorus:
G D Em C
ʼCause you canʼt cancel all of us, youʼre more than wеlcome to try
