2020 Riots: How Many Times |
(Hmm |
I just gotta get some things off my chest |
Tough times, I hope y’all holdin' up |
We’ll be aight 'cause we always is |
But I’m feelin' like this) |
How many mothers have to cry? |
How many brothers gotta die? |
How many more times? |
How many more times? |
How many more marches? |
How many more signs? |
How many more lives? |
How many more times? |
Take a look around, can you see it now? |
Don’t be colorblind, 'cause when they’re killin' mine |
They’ll try to justify it |
Oh, each and every time |
Playin' in a park, takin' your jog |
Sittin' on the couch, in your own house |
Never seem to matter what we do |
You think we don’t matter, but we do |
You got a problem, 'cause the city on fire |
But you quiet when niggas die |
Let the soul up out that body that we buried |
You with God now you no longer have to worry |
It’s so hard to sing these words out loud |
All these beautiful, precious black lives |
Lost in the name of senseless white pride |
Tears fallin' from my eyes |
How many mothers have to cry? |
How many brothers gotta die? |
How many more times? |
How many more times? |
How many more marches? |
How many more signs? |
How many more lives? |
How many more times? |
Tell me how can you be quiet? |
You know the language of the unheard, is a riot |
All we ever see from you is violence (True) |
You know you ain’t no better if you silent |
You talking 'bout the city on fire (Oh, oh) |
Where your rage when my people die? |
We ain’t slaves, let my people fly (Oh, yeah) |
Now it’s time, watch my people rise |
How many mothers have to cry? |
(Ooh, how?) |
How many brothers gotta die? |
(Ooh, how?) |
How many more times? |
(Ooh, how?) |
How many more times? |
(How many times?) |
How many more marches? |
(Ooh, how?) |
How many more signs? |
(Ooh, how?) |
How many more lives? |
(Ooh, how?) |
How many more times? |
(How many times?) |
How many mothers have to cry? |
(Tell me? Ooh, how?) |
How many brothers gotta die? |
(Tell me? Ooh, how?) |
How many more times? |
(Oh no, ooh, how?) |
How many more times? |
(How many times?) |
How many more marches? |
(All across the world, ooh, how?) |
How many more signs? |
(Woah, oh, oh, ooh, how?) |
How many more lives? |
(Shame I gotta ask, ooh, how?) |
How many more times? |
(How many times?) |
I’ll leave you with that (Yes, yeah) |
