I Can'T Breathe
The black man is to be feared,
Didn't you hear?
That's why I lift my hands in the air,
Don't shoot!
My eyes looking to the sky
Asking God why?
So many black brothers got to die.
Someone, please explain to me, sigh
Designed is the system,
Was never broken
Riots are the voices,
Of the injustice unspoken
It was never okay to take a knee,
During your national anthem,
But it was okay to take a knee;
On my neck
Just so, you could keep me in check.
I can't breathe,
Eric Garner
Now I won't let you sleep,
From all this drama
I can't breathe
George Floyd
Now, all your buildings getting destroyed,
400 years of slavery
Yet I'm still here
The strength of a black man,
Will never disappear.
