0:06Oh, oh, oh
0:11Oh, oh, oh
0:13Oh, oh, oh
0:16Nah
0:18Starting a war, screaming "Peace" at the same time
0:21All the corruption, injustice, the same crimes
0:25Always a problem if we do or don't fight
0:28And we die, we don't have the same right
0:32What is a gun to a man that surrenders?
0:35What's it gonna take for someone to defend her?
0:38If we all agree that we're equal as people
0:42Then why can't we see what is evil?
0:45I can't breathe
0:49You're taking my life from me
0:52I can't breathe
0:56Will anyone fight for me?
1:00Oh, oh, oh
1:04Oh, oh, oh
1:07Oh, oh, oh
1:13How do we cope when we don't love each other?
1:17Where is the hope and the empathy? (Yeah)
1:20How do we judge off the color?
1:23The structure was made to make us the enemy (Yeah)
1:28Prayin' for change 'cause the pain makes you tender
1:31All of the names you refuse to remember
1:34Was somebody's brother, friend
1:37Or a son to a mother that's crying, singing
1:41I can't breathe
1:44You're taking my life from me
1:48I can't breathe
1:51Will anyone fight for me? (Yeah)
1:56Oh, oh, oh
1:59Oh, oh, oh
2:03Oh, oh, oh
2:06Will anyone fight for me?
2:10Oh, oh, oh
2:13Oh, oh, oh
2:17Oh, oh, oh (For me)
2:22Trying times all the time
2:25Destruction of minds, bodies, and human rights
2:27Stripped of bloodlines, whipped and confined
2:31This is the American pride
2:32It's justifying a genocide
2:34Romanticizing the theft and bloodshed
2:37That made America the land of the free
2:40To take a black life, land of the free
2:42To bring a gun to a peaceful fight for civil rights
2:46You are desensitized to pulling triggers on innocent lives
2:50Because that's how we got here in the first place
2:53These wounds sink deeper than the bullet
2:56Your entitled hands could ever reach
2:58Generations and generations of pain, fear, and anxiety
3:02Equality is walking without intuition
3:05Saying the protector and the killer is wearing the same uniform
3:09The revolution is not televised
3:12Media perception is forced down the throats of closed minds
3:15So it's lies in the headlines
3:18And generations of supremacy resulting in your ignorant, privileged eyes
3:24We breathe the same and we bleed the same
3:27But still, we don't see the same
3:28Be thankful we are God-fearing
3:30Because we do not seek revenge
3:32We seek justice, we are past fear
3:35We are fed up eating your shit
3:37Because you think your so-called "black friend"
3:40Validates your wokeness and erases your racism
3:44That kind of uncomfortable conversation is too hard for your trust-fund pockets to swallow
3:49To swallow the strange fruit hanging from my family tree
3:53Because of your audacity
3:55To say all men are created equal in the eyes of God
3:58But disparage a man based on the color of his skin
4:02Do not say you do not see color
4:05When you see us, see us
4:09We can't breathe
4:15Oh, oh, oh
4:19Oh, oh, oh
4:22Oh, oh, oh
4:29Oh, oh, oh
4:32Oh, oh, oh
4:36Oh, oh, oh
