I’m so tired of seeing this violence
I hear the cries and see all the riots
I’m so tired of seeing them silenced
I’ve had enough, I can’t keep silent
I’m so tired of seeing the faces
Of the innocent lives that were all taken
I’m so tired and my hearts breaking, yeah
I’m reading the names
I’m learning the history
And realizing how much
Of it has been hid from me
I feel all this pain
But I know that there’s more to see
I’m not playing no games
Because right now they cannot breathe
I am a part of the privileged majority
I don’t know what it feels like for minority
But all of it angers me
Sick of discrimination
Not familiar with inferiority
Trying to get a grasp, most I can’t believe
But it sickens me
That we are treating these people as less than human just because of skin
(I can't breathe, I can't breathe)
(I can't breathe, I can't breathe)
(I can't breathe, I can't breathe)
(I can't breathe, I can't breathe)
All these people are broken
And all people are hurting
So please stop being a burden
By criticizing, not learning
Give them attention the same
Learn more and more about the pain
You can show love in His name
You got the power for change
The power for...
We’re so quick to label
And in comes the hating
We see a whole group
And make gen’ralizations
I’m calling all races
To stop judging strangers
And worry bout yourself
And how you are changing
Many people hitting snooze
Believing that it’s all a ruse
It’s sad to see that they don’t choose
To put on someone else’s shoes
It’s time to wake up, listen and support them
What they feel is important, don’t put what we see before them
People say, “all lives matter,” but they choose to ignore them
There’s so many crying out, so I’ve gotta stand for them (aye)
(I can't breathe, I can't breathe)
(I can't breathe, I can't breathe)
(I can't breathe, I can't breathe)
(I can't breathe, I can't breathe)
I am not talking bout politics
I am not talking bout flags
I am not talking bout statues
Compared to a person they’re only a rag
Some organizations are here for the bag
They don’t really care about people it’s sad
Don’t let the media trick you, you’ll lag
Think for yourself, but don’t think of just self
Think of others as well
The news only tells you opinions and is never free of bias
I don’t stand with riots but I stand with voices crying out
But what’s crazy is I know a guy
And his business caught fire because of a rioter
But he still loved on him, wow, that requires
Some grace and some higher strength coming from heavenly places
That’s living on fire, let your heart burn
It’s time to wake up, listen and support them
What they feel is important, don’t put what we see before them
People say, “all lives matter,” but they choose to ignore them
There’s so many crying out, so I’ve gotta stand for them (aye)
(I can't breathe, I can't breathe)
(I can't breathe, I can't breathe)
(I can't breathe, I can't breathe)
(I can't breathe, I can't breathe)
Listen, we’re all one broken race
Different backgrounds different shades
But we’re freed by the price He paid
And we’ll all be unified one day
We’re battling down to the heart
And most don’t know what to say
But a really good way to start
Is to listen instead of display
But people hate the hate to fix the curse
And that’s only gonna make it worse
We’ve gotta push for some change in how we converse
But the silence is deafening from the church
Sad to see that Christians are the ones judging
Instead of reflecting the One who is loving
Why do we gotta hold all of these grudges?
We should worry bout our hearts first
The enemy wants us divided
But I won’t ever stop fighting
And I know the bottom line is
We should all treat each other like we’re made in His image
Even in our difference
See the beauty in it
We’ve gotta keep trying
I don’t care where you’re sided
That’s the only way to be united
I look at this world, and it’s so littered with brokenness
And I’m calling out to all of you, even my enemies, as a friend
To fight all this hate with love, cuz the root of this evil’s sin
And I’m so looking forward to the day that we can all together breathe free again
