Somebody Loves Me (feat. Darren Green, Jo Rivers, Officially Curtis, Takiyah Fatima, Clark, Charlie Kris & Kristyn)

From Emmett Till in 1955
To George Floyd in 2020
You lynched us and called us nobody
But we are the mothers and fathers of civilization
We gave birth to everybody
Just trying to make it home because I got SOMEBODY that loves me

Mama telling me stay out the way
I swear it gets harder every day
They treat us like nobody
Each and everyone of us somebody

Mama telling me stay out the way
I swear it gets harder every day
They treat us like nobody
Each and everyone of us somebody

Somebody loves me

Officer I'm not asking why you stopped me
I'm just asking you to let me make it home
Like you I have someone who loves me I have a family of my own
And my mother said if I ever get stopped
That I'm to call her, no matter what time it is and if she doesn't answer use the camera on my phone
Sir, why you using that tone
Ain't got a Grab me like that
Y'all ain't Gotta do me like that
Let me Go, I cant breath
Tell me why y'all so threatened by the young and the black
Tell me why
I don't want to be the next one in a black bag
Not me
Or be another hashtag
R.I.P
All these black faces killed on camera and y'all can't give us no answers, why

Mama telling me stay out the way
I swear it gets harder every day
They treat us like nobody
Each and everyone of us somebody

Mama telling me stay out the way
I swear it gets harder every day
They treat us like nobody
Each and everyone of us somebody

Somebody Loves Me

I got a pray that at the end of the day
My unborn black son won't be just another name
Another unsolved case
Another face maced
Another body tased
Another black life taken away
I gotta million problems the police is one
My heart cries for the Mama's who have lost their son
Fist up we pissed off
The Fight won't be done
Fist up we gone fight till we get justice

I want to be somebody
I want to go somewhere
We need to stop with this racial tension

I want to be somebody
I want to go somewhere
We need to stop with this racial tension

I want to be somebody
I want to go somewhere
We need to stop with this racial tension

Somebody loves me

Somebody loves me
