Mercy
Lord don't let me die alone
Hold my hand when you take me home
Show some mercy
I call to my angels, call to my god
Do whatever it takes to beat these odds
I'm calling for mercy
These are our daughters, these are our sons
Oh lord forgive us for what we've done
And show some mercy
My eyes can't see nothing but black and white
They can't tell if it's day or night
They're crying for mercy
Our brothers are falling all around
And our sisters can't hear above the sound
They're screaming for mercy
Because these are our mothers, our fathers too
May we forgive them for what they do
I've got to show it to myself
I've got to show it to myself
I've got to show it to myself
If I ever want mercy
We've got to show it to ourselves
We've got to show it to ourselves
We've got to show it to ourselves
If we ever want mercy
Oh
These are our daughters and these are our sons
Lord forgive them for what they've done
May we all have mercy now
May we all have mercy
May we all show mercy now
May we all show mercy
Hold my hand when you take me home
Show some mercy
I call to my angels, call to my god
Do whatever it takes to beat these odds
I'm calling for mercy
These are our daughters, these are our sons
Oh lord forgive us for what we've done
And show some mercy
My eyes can't see nothing but black and white
They can't tell if it's day or night
They're crying for mercy
Our brothers are falling all around
And our sisters can't hear above the sound
They're screaming for mercy
Because these are our mothers, our fathers too
May we forgive them for what they do
I've got to show it to myself
I've got to show it to myself
I've got to show it to myself
If I ever want mercy
We've got to show it to ourselves
We've got to show it to ourselves
We've got to show it to ourselves
If we ever want mercy
Oh
These are our daughters and these are our sons
Lord forgive them for what they've done
May we all have mercy now
May we all have mercy
May we all show mercy now
May we all show mercy
