Stop you said So I did Put your hands up you said So I did Be still you said So I did Still put that gun to my head Still shot another unarmed black kid We looking for freedom Waiting until that dream come Massa threw away the chains cause he no longer needs them He pulled out system racism and this shit just begun We looking for freedom Our hands up don't shoot us We face down don't abuse us This not a joke not amusing You wasn't scared for your life you knew exactly what you was doing When you killed him And you left his wife with all the children Kids without their father Sons without their mother Just for their parent to become a fucking martyr For a war A war we didn't even know we were in It's like all the odds are stacked against us So how tf we supposed to win Since I was a kin Schools told us we won't be nothing Living in poverty I never thought I could be something But never slowing like Usain Best believe Ima keep running And you can try knock me down But like Ali ima keep punching Let's remember mlk I have a Dream that one day My children won't be judged by the color of their skin But by the content of their character It's been like 50 years And ain't shit change in America I still have that dream But now I'm talking a bit different I have a dream that One day I'll be able to tell my children That we are the generation that made racism die Honestly some days I wish my skin was bullet proof Cause maybe that'll stop the killing Maybe that'll numb this feeling Maybe that'll open their eyes Maybe that'll help us live in a world where I can finally breathe Where my people survive But we still looking for freedom My black still bleeding from their blue But I know god wouldn't give us a battle He didn't think we could handle So we staying boot strapped up And we could never back up Cause freedom is never granted But best believe it's gone be won It's black lives matter A song that will never be unsung Cause we looking for freedom We looking for freedom We looking for It's always gon be people who try to knock you down, it's up to you to stay ten feet Down. Never wear a frown always fix your crown it may slip and slide but it'll never Touch the ground watch out for the snakes they always creep around, gotta guard your Peace keep It safe and sound. We living in a world where evil is the curse just keep spreading love Maybe that's the cure. I'm looking for some spirituality, humanity security positivity emotionally this world ain't it No more I'm looking for some spirituality, humanity security positivity emotionally this world ain't it No more No moreee no moreee no moreee No moreee Rip to George Floyd and Ahmad Arbery, they keep taken black men away from families Please remove your knees we said we cannot breathe i know you hear our screams, we Know you hear our screams. Take away this pain repeating history government officials Tell me what is it ya gain, we don't want no warrr just equal rights for all freedom of Speech it ain't enough I'm looking for some spirituality, humanity security positivity emotionally this world ain't it No more I'm looking for some spirituality, humanity security positivity emotionally this world ain't it No more No moreee no moreee no moreee No moreee Say his name Say her name Say his name Say her name a Say his name Say her name Say his name Say her name Say his name Say they names
