Trey Knowles - They Don’t Care About Us

In “They Don’t Care About Us,” Trey Knowles delivers a powerful message about recognizing who truly stands with you. He declares that if God is for you, no force can stand against you—especially not the European colonizers who once held his people in captivity and falsely claimed to represent the image of God. Trey urges listeners to recognize that these systems were never created for their wellbeing. Since those who colonized you do not care about you, he calls on you to step out of their systems and draw closer to the God who genuinely loves and protects you. The song warns against remaining in “the belly of the beast,” a Europe that came to kill, steal, and destroy, and encourages seeking spiritual freedom in God instead.
