| Gary selling loosies by the liquor store
|
| Didn’t really mean no harm
|
| But he was black and stood 6 foot 7
|
| So the owner sound the alarm
|
| He tried to comply with everything they said
|
| Cause he knew he was breaking law
|
| But when heard the sirens he started to run
|
| And bullets was all he saw
|
| And it started to go down
|
| There was nothing but the sound of the officers
|
| Letting out some screams
|
| Then he opened his eyes gasping for air and the last thing he said on the scene
|
| Is I can’t breathe
|
| Somebody help me please
|
| I see the light
|
| I think I’m gonna die
|
| Bobby went for a walk in the park
|
| To play with his brand new toy
|
| It was a plastic gun that popped like a sparkler
|
| Fit for a young little boy
|
| But a neighbor got scared and called for help
|
| With nothing but fear pulsing through
|
| But failed to mention that he was all alone
|
| So there’s not much he can do
|
| But the cop went off and sent 20 shots
|
| And didn’t even flinch or blink
|
| But jury let him off, and bobby’s mother scoffed
|
| And the whole world watched her scream
|
| I can’t breathe
|
| Somebody help me please
|
| I see the light
|
| I think I’m gonna die |
