Another man down, another one dead Shoot first, ask questions later I’m so tired I can’t take it How long until we break? I cannot watch one more death What I see when you stand by Your complicit you let us die No excuses, no empty words We can’t stand up, it’s your turn If you love us, you’re up next We can’t breathe, get off our necks Would you save me like you save yourself? My pain should be your pain It’s your turn to say their names This killing ends today It’s your turn to say their names I call the human race It’s your turn to say their names No, we won’t go away It’s your turn to say their names 7 years old when they killed Aiyana Tell Trayvon that “all lives matter” Mike Brown, gunned down Sandra Bland ain’t stand a chance If I said, “please, don’t shoot!” Hands up high, right clothes, right shoes Would you see me in the news? With no video to prove George Floyd set the world on fire But Korryn’s baby had to watch her die Tamir you should be here today I can’t get through all the names You cry, “wrong time, wrong place.” With Breonna what do you say? Riah Milton, I’m tired Bless their families, don’t be silent My pain should be your pain It’s your turn to say their names This killing ends today It’s your turn to say their names I call the human race It’s your turn to say their names No, we won’t go away It’s your turn to say their names My pain should be your pain It’s your turn to say their names This killing ends today It’s your turn to say their names I call the human race It’s your turn to say their names No, we won’t go away It’s your turn to say their names One nation, under God Indivisible, justice for some Forget liberty, forget fair A seat at the table, but bring your own chair Who will deliver us from this hell? Pledging allegiance and winding up dead You take our babies You take our rights So I am standing up for black lives
