Flow Like Water

I know You're working
But right now it's hard to see you move
Yeah I'm not ok
Some things I just cannot excuse
Like how can they see me
Fighting to breathe hear
Trying to reason
Tell 'em Why I should be hear
Why I'm enough
And how much I mean here
How I'm a human
They don't really hear me
Yeah I'm not ok, I'm not ok
When will it ever change, somebody tell me

Hear my heartbeat
See these tears
See my blood
Feel these fears
Feel my pain
Feel my passion
Feel my struggle
All I'm asking
To See my sons
See my daughters
I'm on this altar
Lookin for Ya
Let Your Love
Flow like water
Let Your Love
Let it flow like water

Let it flow like water
Let it flow like water
Let Your love reign down on me
Let it flow like water
Let it flow like water
Let Your love reign down on me
Let it flow like water

I know You're working
But right now it's hard to see you move
And yeah I'm not ok
Some things I just can't excuse
Like the hate in their eyes
When they look at the men I love
This anger inside
When I see how they're killing us
And how I feel helpless
And how I feel stuck
And even though I am strong
It don't seem like enough
And no I'm not ok
God when will this ever change

Hear my heartbeat
See these tears
See my blood
Feel these fears
Feel my pain
Feel my passion
Feel my struggle
All I'm asking
Is to see my sons
And see my daughters
I'm on this altar
Lookin for Ya
Let Your Love
Flow like water
Let Your Love
Let it flow like water

Let it flow like water
Let it flow like water
Let Your love reign down on me
Let it flow like water
Let it flow like water
Let Your love reign down on me
Let it flow like water

I will not apologize for hating racism, no no
I will not apologize for being black
I will not apologize for bein' exactly who I am
Or forever having George Floyd's back
I'm still Blacker than ever
I'm still wearing my hoodies
I still jog in my neighborhood, riding bikes, popping wheelies
Nappy headed and Christian
Praying for God's position
Marching for freedom while I'm outreaching to opposition
I'm hand waving and smiling, killing'em with my kindness
You don't like it, you can bite it, Blame my Maker, he's the guidance
Ain't no rest for the wicked
I'm outworking the violent
Swing my fist at the ballot
I fully accept the challenge
To be the change that I wish to see
Extending handshakes to those who throwing rocks at me
They call me sellout for saying pray for my enemies
I'm still angry but I'm using it strategically and protesting peacefully
Let Your love reign down on me
Let it flow like water
