TULSA

We've been through riots and hatred
We've been doubted the most hated
I'm getting tired of this shit
I keep trying to cope with this
I done seen bullets fly past me
I done felt police harass me
Get yo knee off my neck
I'm really tryin to catch my breath
And I can't take it no more
I'm here crying on the floor
C'mon please give me a chance
Let me have this one last dance

They say we need change
I ain't got none
We been changing for years
While ya'll having fun
It's time for the games to come to an end
And I don't really care if I'm yo only black friend
Run and tell your uncles
Educate your moms
We really need ya'll to finish this marathon
Black bodies matter as much as the precious gold
It's our sole purpose to choose how our story's told

Black Lives Matter
Black Lives Graduate
Black Lives Live
Black Lives Stimulate
Black Lives Shine
Black Lives Educate
Black Lives Love
Black Lives Demonstrate

I said I really need my people
To come around and elevate
Bring yo kids, bring yo wife so long as they is
Melanated so creative educated black brothers and sisters
Man I'm Just tryna get witcha
Cmon Just let the sun hit ya
All my black kings and blacks queens betta get yo soul right
Planning to fall in love make sure use ya own sight
Target finder type of niggas you know they keep the pole tight
Keeping all the prayers up
Hope we make it through the night
