Loss 4 Words
I'm at a loss for words and I can't explain it myself
How can I write a song that hasn't already been written
I'm at a loss for words and I can't explain it myself
I think I need some help cause
There's so much frustration going on in the world today
Another life has been lost to police brutality
(George Floyd, Breonna Taylor, Tanisha Anderson)
But if we've supposedly come so far then why are we right where we are
(Corey Jones, Alonzo Smith, Tyree Crawford)
With history repeating itself again and again
(Bettie Jones, Anthony Hill, Christian Taylor, Tyre King)
Well it's almost like we haven't learned a thing
(Elijah McClain, Cynthia Wesley)
But I won't ask no questions
I just trust the universe will take us where we need to go
But I don't know it's the only way
We know we need to change
But change is just too hard so we
Expect that our mistakes
Will solve themselves but that's not the way
I know we will find a way
But there's too much
Too much we need to change and don't you really think it's strange how
I'm at a loss for words and I can't explain it myself
How can I write a song that hasn't already been written
I'm at a loss for words and I can't explain it myself
I think I need some help cause
There's so much destruction going on in the world today
(Ahmaud Abery, David Josiah Lawson, Freddie Gray Jr, Paterson Brown)
How many lives have been poisoned from man made chemistry
(Jamar Clark, Dante Parker, Aaron Bailey, Philando Castile, Kevin Hicks, Kendrick Johnson)
And how many lives are afraid to be taken just by going outside
(James Lee Alexander, Pamela Turner, Sean Bell, Bobby Russ, Torrey Robinson)
You know we can not run away no there's nowhere left to hide
(Dj Henry Jr, Marcus Smith, Eric Garner, Trayvon Martin)
But I won't ask no questions
I just trust the universe will take us where we need to go
But I don't know it's the only way
We know we need to change
But change is just too hard so we
Expect that our mistakes
Will solve themselves but that's not the way
I know we will find a way
But there's too much
Too much we need to change and don't you really think it's strange yea
I'm at a loss for words and I can't explain it myself
I'm just too emotional
I wanna let it go
But you've got to know
Every human got a right to be free
Every human got a right to just be
Just like every single flower's got a right to blume
Every single soul's got a right to deplume all the negativity that's in their lives
You gotta stand up and demand your rights to be free
Oh to be free yea
So when you're all alone in the middle of the night
And you're feelin like you aint got the power to fight
You gotta stand up and breathe
Just breathe and sing
I want freedom for all not some yes I wanna live in a world where all in one
(Sandra Bland, Nathanial Pickett, Richard Perkins, India Kager)
Come on
I want freedom for all not some yes I wanna live in a world where all in one
(Natasha McKenna, Kendrick Smith, Victor Larosa, Johnathan Sanders, Albert Davis)
I want freedom for all not some yes I wanna live in a world where all in one
(Billy Davis, Anthony Ashford, Troy Robinson, Timothy Thomas, Emmet Till)
I want freedom for all not some yes I wanna live in a world where all in one
(Mya Hall, Eric Harris, Michael Noel, Dominick Hutchinson, Willie McCoy, Miles Hall)
I want freedom for all not some yes I wanna live in a world where all in one
(Paul O'Neal, David Joseph, Randy Nelson, Christopher David, Janet Wilson, Ryan Smith)
I want freedom for all not some yes I wanna live in a world where all in one
(Addie Collins, Clinton Allen, Wayne Arnold Jones, William Green, Peter Gaines)
Prince said that peace is more than the absence of a war peace is justice
(I want freedom for all not some yes I wanna live in a world where all in one)
And there will be no peace so long as there are racist leaders in our government
There will be no peace so long as big corporations continue
To exploit the environment and the people in it
(I want freedom for all not some yes I wanna live in a world where all in one)
Peace is a balance and we will achieve it by any means necessary
Come on
But I believe peace will come one day one day
And until that day comes
I will be the change
How can I write a song that hasn't already been written
I'm at a loss for words and I can't explain it myself
I think I need some help cause
There's so much frustration going on in the world today
