Текст песни

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?

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)
Praying 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!
Will anyone fight for me?
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 shit
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...
