Revenge, My Love

Lead in the water
No help in sight
Three years and counting
Left here to die
Poison the people
Hide all the proof
Alternate facts ignoring the truth

How can you sit calm and quiet
While freedom chokes and dies
While freedom chokes and dies
How can you sit calm and quiet
While freedom chokes and dies
While freedom chokes and dies

This is a curse
That comes well deserved

Bury me in the ocean
Like my ancestors past
They knew the ocean's embrace
Was better than a life in chains

This is a curse
That comes well deserved

Bury me in the ocean
Like my ancestors past
They knew the oceans embrace
Was better than a life in chains

Gun him down
Take his life cause he's brown
Citizens
Unarmed choked out
Say her name
Took her life
Sandra Bland
Citizens
Strung up tossed out

You say that this is justice
You treat us like the enemy
You treat us like the enemy

Black boys and girls
Shouldn't live in fear
When they see a pig
In the rear view mirror
Apathy leads us towards tyranny
