Look at Me
I've seen Trayvon Martin, Michael Brown
Eric Garner all go down
For looking like me
JFK in 63
Dr. King in Tennessee
For looking like me
Look at me
When will you look at me?
And think you look like me
You sho' do look like me
Rise above
When will we rise above?
Living without our love
Without our dignity
Oo oo oo
Oo oo oo
I hear the people say (We need law)
But there's another way (We need love)
A hard head never healed a heart
And everytime i look around I
Can't help but think out loud
Freedom ain't fair and love ain't cheap
That's why, everyday I get a little taller
While they're in my rearview smaller
Looking for dreams that they sent away
I lift my head just a little bit higher
Knowing that the world will catch fire
After they've seen the mess i made
Because they know
We'll never go
We'll only grow
Just like we did before
Look at me
When will you look at me?
And think you look like me
You sho' do look like me
Rise above
When will we rise above?
Living without our love
Without our dignity
Look at me
When will you look at me
And think you look like me
You sho' do look like me
Look at me
When will you look at me
And think you look like me
You sho' do look like me
Oo oo oo
Oo oo oo
Eric Garner all go down
For looking like me
JFK in 63
Dr. King in Tennessee
For looking like me
Look at me
When will you look at me?
And think you look like me
You sho' do look like me
Rise above
When will we rise above?
Living without our love
Without our dignity
Oo oo oo
Oo oo oo
I hear the people say (We need law)
But there's another way (We need love)
A hard head never healed a heart
And everytime i look around I
Can't help but think out loud
Freedom ain't fair and love ain't cheap
That's why, everyday I get a little taller
While they're in my rearview smaller
Looking for dreams that they sent away
I lift my head just a little bit higher
Knowing that the world will catch fire
After they've seen the mess i made
Because they know
We'll never go
We'll only grow
Just like we did before
Look at me
When will you look at me?
And think you look like me
You sho' do look like me
Rise above
When will we rise above?
Living without our love
Without our dignity
Look at me
When will you look at me
And think you look like me
You sho' do look like me
Look at me
When will you look at me
And think you look like me
You sho' do look like me
Oo oo oo
Oo oo oo
