I Can't Breathe |
| Our brother’s name was George |
| And he walked into the store |
| Because his money was low |
| They called him a criminal |
| And they called authorities |
| They put hands cuffs on me |
| And when I tried to explain |
| They responded with a knee |
| I can’t breathe |
| Your hate is choking the life out of me |
| This suppose to be the land of the free |
| He looked at me |
| I can’t breathe |
| Whoa, whoa |
| And I know I’m a strong black man |
| But please, don’t be afraid of what you see |
| Just like you I’m trying to raise my family |
| Remove your knee |
| 'Cause I can’t breathe |
| And we demand a change |
| We demand it right now |
| And the blood of the innocent |
| Is crying from the ground |
| 400 years of slavery |
| Clinging to a dream |
| When will reparations come? |
| When will freedom ring? |
| I can’t breathe |
| Oh, your hatred is choking the life out of me |
| This suppose to be the land of the free |
| But look at me |
| I can’t breathe |
| Oh, oh, oh |
| Minneapolis, I’m praying for ya |
| Breathe |
| Oh, New York City, I’m praying for ya |
| Oh, breathe |
| I’m gonna tell my brothers and sisters in Detroit City |
| Oh, Detroit, breathe |
| Ooh, ATL, Louisville, Tennessee |
| Boston, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah |
| You gotta breathe, you gotta breathe, you gotta breathe |
| You gotta breathe, you gotta breathe, you gotta breathe |
| Birmingham, Alabama, Louisiana, hey, you gotta breathe |
| From Texas to L.A., from Florida to the Bay |
| In North Carolina, South Carolina, Philadelphia, you gotta breathe |
| Chicago, Ohio, San Francisco, people all over the world |
| From Africa to the U.K. |
| Whoa, breathe |
| Whoa, breathe |
| Breathe |
| Whoa |
