Don't Shoot Me |
This country must understand |
The reasons of these riots |
The black community is placed in consistent situations |
Attempting to protect ourselves from a system not created in furthering our |
development |
Like Dr. Martin Luther King once said, a riot is the language of the unheard |
And we will no longer be kept silent |
Don’t shoot me (Don't shoot me) |
Officer, don’t shoot me (Don't shoot me) |
I promise I got a family (A baby girl) |
And stay up off my neck please (I cannot breathe) |
Don’t shoot me (Don't shoot me) |
Officer, don’t shoot me (Officer) |
I promise I got a family (I got a baby girl) |
And stay up off my neck please (I cannot breathe) |
She can’t breathe, he can’t breathe, no, we can’t breathe |
You say stop the violence, why you think we in these streets? |
You say stop the riots, but don’t listen to our needs |
Instead y’all take y’all knee and then proceed to the back of our necks |
Too many my brothers and sisters is dead and now we livin' through them |
Taking a stand, no, no, no, won’t hear it again |
Fuck the system, fuck the world we live in, how y’all killing? |
Tryna paint us out as villains, pray for children fixed up, don’t shoot me |
Don’t shoot me (Don't shoot me) |
Officer, don’t shoot me (Don't shoot me) |
I promise I got a family (A baby girl) |
And stay up off my neck please (I cannot breathe) |
Don’t shoot me (Don't shoot me) |
Officer, don’t shoot me (Officer) |
I promise I got a family (I got a baby girl) |
And stay up off my neck please (I cannot breathe) |
I’m screaming don’t shoot me (Don't shoot) |
Opps out here killin', man, this ain’t no move (This ain’t no movie) |
These niggas is goofy (They goofy) |
Just 'cause I’m black, they gon' try to remove me (Remove me) |
Cop clutchin' a tooly (He clutchin') |
Bitch, go toe-to-toe and get hit with this two-piece |
Fuck 12, you a bully (Bully) |
Pickin' us off one by one, this shit cruelty |
How we supposed to stay calm when they treat us like target practice? |
We don’t know how to act |
Racist police been doin' this shit, they pull us over just to see if we black |
Can’t run a stop sign without havin' an opp hop out and point the nine in my |
back |
I’m just tryna survive, my nigga, in the streets of hell with some demons, |
get back |
Don’t shoot me (Don't shoot me) |
Officer, don’t shoot me (Don't shoot me) |
I promise I got a family (A baby girl) |
And stay up off my neck please (I cannot breathe) |
Don’t shoot me (Don't shoot me) |
Officer, don’t shoot me (Officer) |
I promise I got a family (I got a baby girl) |
And stay up off my neck please (I cannot breathe) |
The longer the black community is not treated with equality and justice |
continues to not be served |
These riots and violent acts will maintain throughout our present and future |
We need justice, we need peace, we need equality |
We need help |
Black lives matter |
Enough is enough |
The time is now |
And I can’t breathe |
Don’t shoot me |
Officer |
I got a baby girl |
I cannot breathe |
