Lyrics:

[English]

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

Then they let women become men, they tricked me

They told me, "Speak your mind, if you're brave enough"

And I spoke up, and I got cancelled quickly

We were always too young and too nice

And now we're too old and too white

You're either too left or too right

Well, we're speakin' our minds tonight

'Cause you can't cancel all of us, you're more than welcome to try

But you can't cancel all of us, 'cause we're standin' here side by side

And you can't cancel all of us, 'til you earn the stars and stripes

But you can't cancel all of us 'cause the internet ain't real life

They told me, "Be a man, boy, just like your dad"

They told me everything I am is toxic

They said, "The color of your skin doesn't make you bad

But mine makes me racist", got it

We were always too weak and too afraid

And now we're too male and too straight

You're either too real or too fake

Well, we're speakin' our minds today

'Cause you can't cancel all of us, you're more than welcome to try

But you can't cancel all of us, 'cause we're standin' here side by side

And you can't cancel all of us, 'til you earn the stars and stripes

But you can't cancel all of us 'cause the internet ain't real life

You can take my job away

For somethin', I may have said online

But you can't control the man who won't comply

And you can call me every name

That you might think will hurt my pride

But if you think you're stoppin' me, you're out your mind

'Cause you can't cancel all of us, you're more than welcome to try

But you can't cancel all of us, 'cause we're standin' here side by side

And you can't cancel all of us, 'til you earn the stars and stripes

But you can't cancel all of us 'cause the internet ain't real life
