| Remember all the sisters and brothers that got shot by the cops
|
| We got our hands in the air and we still get popped
|
| Now I ain’t saying all cops is bad
|
| How many we got to lose before they take away a badge
|
| How many of us gotta march man before this end
|
| Why they going on vacation and they put us in the pen
|
| Is it because of our skin tone, what happened to freedom of speech
|
| They lock us up in the chains and gun us down in the streets
|
| Dear brothers or should I say soldiers of all colors
|
| Where we went wrong I wrote this love song for ya
|
| Let me begin to tell ya how I love ya
|
| And if your heart is anything like mine, soldier I’d die for ya
|
| You never met me but you felt my presence
|
| Your father, your son, your brother, that’s my essence
|
| I’m only human so I stress like you and I’m just like you and someday I gotta
|
| leave this flesh like you
|
| We’re all a part of a plan that we would never truly understand
|
| And convictions seeking confessions, we’re confused by the devil’s hand
|
| Ain’t none of us was born killers and thieves but it’s the evil we instill in
|
| the seeds
|
| My soldiers as ironic as it seems Woadie don’t nothing truly exist but your
|
| dreams Woadie
|
| And sometimes I find myself worshipping in the moment
|
| And when you catch me off track just put me back on it, with your love
|
| All our people we lost out here
|
| (Lord tell us where do we go from here)
|
| Got our hands up but still in fear
|
| All the bad times we’ve been through
|
| (Lord tell us where do we go from here)
|
| Flashing lights please don’t shoot
|
| You need me and I need you
|
| (Lord tell us where do we go from here)
|
| We’re all human nobody’s perfect
|
| Change your ways while you got time
|
| (Lord tell us where do we go from here)
|
| Lord tell us, did Martin Luther King man die for nothing,
|
| in Baton Rouge Alton Sterling man die for nothing,
|
| Philando Castile it looked real 'til I seen on Facebook man how he got killed
|
| Eric Gordon told the cops Man I can’t breathe
|
| Trayvon and Mike Brown died right up in the streets
|
| Sandra Bland Man never had a chance, hung her in the cell like the Klu Klux Klan
|
| These man-made laws man supposed to be protecting the people
|
| The bad cops out here committing the ultimate evil
|
| And it’s a shame how they screw us
|
| Man we’re all human but you see how they do us
|
| They say slavery don’t exist man say we all free
|
| Law say we got rights why we can’t walk the streets
|
| You say we all evil so we protest for love and peace
|
| And get scared see tattoos, dreads and gold teeth
|
| We pray for the families that lost their loved ones in this injustice.
|
| We pray for the police that lost their lives in these senseless killings.
|
| We fight ignorance with love and I’m not pointing the finger at nobody because
|
| this is a human problem we’re facing right now. |
| I’m just saying if a police
|
| commit a crime he should be treated like a criminal just like everybody else.
|
| We just want justice. |
| No more paid vacations. |
| POP pullover protocol.
|
| I mean we all hurtin' Blacks, Whites, Asians, Latinos. |
| We all we got.
|
| We just want peace. |
| When you know better, you do better. |
| None of us perfect.
|
| 1st John 4:21 Anyone that love God must love his people. |
| We got our hands up,
|
| don’t shoot. |
| We all we got. |
