Lyrics
0:10Sometimes you just can't believe the things your eyes see
0:14So much injustice in this life
0:17If it's happenin' right on your TV screen
0:20So you drop to your knees and you're prayin'
0:22'Cause you can hear him sayin' he can't breathe
0:25And it's all so overwhelming
0:27Because you know there's nothing you can do to help him
0:30Continue to breathe
0:33Continue to breathe
0:35In times like these
0:37That's what your heart is for
0:40Continue to breathe
0:42Continue to breathe
0:45In honor of your brother
0:47That's what your heart is for
0:50There's always someone tryin' to take someone's power away
0:55The history of the world is violent will it ever change
1:00Now we're livin' in a time where you just can't hide
1:03There's a camera in every hand
1:06It's not elusive even when they treat you like you're useless
1:09We know what the truth is
1:11Continue to breathe
1:13Continue to breathe
1:16In times like these
1:18That's what your heart is for
1:21Continue to breathe
1:23Continue to breathe
1:26In honor of your brother
1:28That's what your heart is for
1:31Fight for your life
1:33Fight for your life
1:36In the face of a society
1:38That doesn't value your life
1:41For the men in your life
1:44For the boys in your life
1:46For your brothers for your fathers
1:49For the ones that came before us
1:51For the future for the future
1:54For the future for the future
1:57Continue to breathe
1:58Continue to breathe
2:01In times like these
2:03That's what your heart is for
2:06Continue to breathe
2:08Continue to breathe
2:11In honor of your brother
2:13That's what your heart is for
2:17Continue to breathe
2:19Continue to breathe
2:23In times like these
2:25Nothing matters more
2:27Continue to breathe
2:29Continue to breathe
2:31In honor of your brother
2:34That's what your heart is for
Sometimes you just can't believe the things your eyes see So much injustice in this life If it's happenin' right on your TV screen So you drop to your knees and you're prayin' 'Cause you can hear him sayin' he can't breathe And it's all so overwhelming Because you know there's nothing you can do to help him Continue to breathe Continue to breathe In times like these That's what your heart is for Continue to breathe Continue to breathe In honor of your brother That's what your heart is for There's always someone tryin' to take someone's power away The history of the world is violent will it ever change Now we're livin' in a time where you just can't hide There's a camera in every hand It's not elusive even when they treat you like you're useless We know what the truth is Continue to breathe Continue to breathe In times like these That's what your heart is for Continue to breathe Continue to breathe In honor of your brother That's what your heart is for Fight for your life Fight for your life In the face of a society That doesn't value your life For the men in your life For the boys in your life For your brothers for your fathers For the ones that came before us For the future for the future For the future for the future Continue to breathe Continue to breathe In times like these That's what your heart is for Continue to breathe Continue to breathe In honor of your brother That's what your heart is for Continue to breathe Continue to breathe In times like these Nothing matters more Continue to breathe Continue to breathe In honor of your brother That's what your heart is for
