Justin Timberlake's latest single has a pretty, um, interesting title.

"Take Back the Night" doesn't refer only to the new JT song you're going to hear way too much of on the radio this summer — it's also a history-making foundation that frequently organizes events to raise awareness of sexual violence and rape.

The Take Back the Night Foundation has arranged marches and rallies since the 1970s to protest rape and sexual assault against women.

The first Take Back the Night rally took place in 1975 to protest the murder of microbiologist Susan Alexander Speeth, who was killed less than a block away from her door as she was walking home after dark. Since then, the organization has provided resources and raised awareness to combat sexual violence for over 35 years at thousands of colleges, women's centers, and rape crisis centers internationally.

Tonight the night's, come on surrender
I won't lead your love astray, astray, yeah
Your love's a weapon
Give your body some direction
That's my aim

Take back the night
Come on, use me up until there's nothing left
Take back the night
Dizzy, spinning, sweating, you can't catch your breath
Take back the night
Ooh, don't know when the sun is rising next
Take back the night
So if the feeling's right, then raise your glass and let's
