I Can't Breathe

Oh oh oh

Oh oh oh

Oh oh oh

Nah

Starting a war screaming "Peace" at the same time

All the corruption injustice the same crimes

Always a problem if we do or don't fight

And we die we don't have the same right

What is a gun to a man that surrenders

What's it gonna take for someone to defend her

If we all agree that we're equal as people

Then why can't we see what is evil

I can't breathe

You're taking my life from me

I can't breathe

Will anyone fight for me

Oh oh oh

Oh oh oh

Oh oh oh

How do we cope when we don't love each other

Where is the hope and the empathy

Yeah

How do we judge off the color

The structure was made to make us the enemy

Yeah

Prayin' for change 'cause the pain makes you tender

All of the names you refuse to remember

Was somebody's brother friend

Or a son to a mother that's crying singing

I can't breathe

You're taking my life from me

I can't breathe

Will anyone fight for me

Yeah

Oh oh oh

Oh oh oh

Oh oh oh

Will anyone fight for me

Oh oh oh

Oh oh oh

Oh oh oh

For me

Trying times all the time

Destruction of minds bodies and human rights

Stripped of bloodlines whipped and confined

This is the American pride

It's justifying a genocide

Romanticizing the theft and bloodshed

That made America the land of the free

To take a black life land of the free

To bring a gun to a peaceful fight for civil rights

You are desensitized to pulling triggers on innocent lives

Because that's how we got here in the first place

These wounds sink deeper than the bullet

Your entitled hands could ever reach

Generations and generations of pain fear and anxiety

Equality is walking without intuition

Saying the protector and the killer is wearing the same uniform

The revolution is not televised

Media perception is forced down the throats of closed minds

So it's lies in the headlines

And generations of supremacy resulting in your ignorant privileged eyes

We breathe the same and we bleed the same

But still we don't see the same

Be thankful we are God-fearing

Because we do not seek revenge

We seek justice we are past fear

We are fed up eating your s**t

Because you think your so-called "black friend"

Validates your wokeness and erases your racism

That kind of uncomfortable conversation is too hard for your trust-fund pockets to swallow

To swallow the strange fruit hanging from my family tree

Because of your audacity

To say all men are created equal in the eyes of God

But disparage a man based on the color of his skin

Do not say you do not see color

When you see us see us

We can't breathe

Oh oh oh

Oh oh oh

Oh oh oh

Oh oh oh

Oh oh oh

Oh oh oh ^[1]
