I Can't Breathe (feat. Tytist & Celena Lena)
Bodies laying on the ground (Ground)
Dead or alive (He dead)
It's just another day that's passing by (Sheesh)
The streets ain't safe (Ain't safe)
Getting caught up in the chase (Uh)
And then we being killed 'cause of race
We got a problem (Problem)
Dwelling in the ghetto (Ghetto)
Running out of options (Options)
The neighborhood is fatal (*pop-pop*)
It's time to arise (Rise, leggo')
We all gotta unite (Yessir)
Put all else aside
And go stand up for what's right, ight? (Ight)
Rolling down the city
All we see is burning buildings
Minimum sentences given
So the result is resilience
Look the killing gotta stop
That's no kidding, too deep in it yeah
Choked to death or shot
It don't matter the intentions
It's no let up (Let up)
They don't care though (Care though)
So we calling out agendas
"It gets no better"
I, I cannot fathom that thought (Nuh uh)
And I cannot stop for results (No)
So I gotta go (Go)
No matter the weight on my shoulders
I can't wait, cause he can't breathe (*gasp*)
And I can't run or even jog on the street (Nah nah)
Let alone, be seen
Just 'cause I got heat don't mean I got a heater
God on my side and I know that He's a healer (Yeah, Yeah)
We can turn it around, but you gotta believe it
So what you gon' do to relieve this?
Let's talk about this injustice
It's a combustion of thoughts in the mind
And spiritual questioning
Fighting the battle, resulting in crime
And missing the mark with no medicine (No agent)
Yeah it's time to address the issues (Issues)
The talk for the town is long overdue
Why is the talk of the town so uncomfortable?
This goes to show that we got so much more to do (More to do)
Oh we got some changes to make
Edit the system so everyone's safe (Yeah yeah)
Let's erase hate and revise the
Lies to stand together united for change
Bodies laying on the ground (Ground)
Dead or alive (He dead)
It's just another day that's passing by (Sheesh)
The streets ain't safe (Ain't safe)
Getting caught up in the chase (Uh)
And then we being killed 'cause of race
We got a problem (Problem)
Dwelling in the ghetto (Ghetto)
Running out of options (Options)
The neighborhood is fatal (*pop-pop*)
It's time to arise (Rise, leggo')
We all gotta unite (Yes sir)
Put all else aside
And go stand up for what's right, ight? (Ight)
(Yeah) My God is a God of justice
But He look down at the world disgusted (Disgusted)
There ain't nothing new up under the sun
Everything dry and rusted, busted, burnt out, bruised and broken (Yuh)
I'm mad y'all think we joking
What did I wake up and see? (See)
I saw a brother get crushed by a knee (Dang)
I saw the baby girl, back of the seat
Her daddy got shot, she watched him bleed
Police don't talk, what do that mean?
A lot don't care 'bout us, streets ain't clean (Mm)
What if I got stopped?
What if I got shot?
It's the color of my skin that gets me popped? (Wow)
Look at my brother, he rock 'locks
But if he in a hoodie, his heart might stop? (dang)
It's like we the scum of the earth (Earth)
But we got dreams and worth (Worth)
Time don't heal, it don't work (Nah nah)
Authorities really don't serve
It's just like 'Pac said ('Pac said)
I see no change, just racist faces (aye)
Is someone out there? (Out there)
Kill the evil, erase the hatred (Kill it)
Bodies they all dead (all dead)
The reason why we need a savior (Aye)
When is this gon' end? (Gon' end)
Freedom that's the key, it's major (Mmm)
We ain't free to drive around (Skrrt)
God forbid the siren sound (Whoop)
He gone have to hold me down (down)
Injustice cried, it's real loud
Bodies laying on the ground (Ground)
Dead or alive (He dead)
It's just another day that's passing by (Sheesh)
The streets ain't safe (Ain't safe)
Getting caught up in the chase (Uh)
