black lives matter lyrics – dax

i can’t breathe
i can’t breathe
ay ya
i can’t breathe

this a revolution in our time
everybody’s fighting
change coming, yes
that’s why it’s an acronym for riot
everybody has a voice
don’t you dare stay silent
if you say nothing
you are an accessory to violence
let these words dry
the tears of my people
who are crying
we can bring back hope
but not people that are dying
this is what happens when the people
you’ve oppressed
ask for change in a country
that they built but you ignored
and deny it this for sandra bland
george floyd and every single family
police brutality has intervened in
and destroyed
couple bad cop couple can’t define
all you other boys so every good cop
needs to stand up and make noise

black, white, asain doesn’t matter cause
we can’t avoid so let’s all come together
join hands and yes get annoyed at people
who believe racism makes sense in a country
built off minority slave work employed
see nobodies born racist man
it’s something you learn
deep rooted in your brain
from the day of your birth
i think it’s time that
we repair all of the bridges
we’ve burned and let love out of our
hearts onto cheeks we turn
spread love, show love
lets get rid of this curse
don’t wait for anyone to act man
you go first 400 years wasted
let’s get rid of this hurt cause that’s
the only way we’ll ever see peace on earth

i can’t breathe
i can’t breathe
i, i
i can’t breathe

change is what we need
cut me open, cut you open red’s
the color every single human beings bleeds
let’s come together cops citizens
and in between and rally
for the rights of everybody in humanity
black, blue, white, green
playing for the seam the team
i’m not mlk but boy that doesn’t mean
i can’t dream
black lives matter shouldn’t anger
you or make you scream
all lives matter cause
we aren’t treated equally
remember when we were kids
and didn’t see no color
and when we played
in kindergarten and
i called you my brother
then we grew up and they taught us
we should hate on each other even though
we one in the same and
we all came from our mothers
i hope y’all understand
hate is not a trait it was learned man
equality is the quality
we need inside this earth man
give and receive
it’s the karma that you earn man

i can’t breathe
i can’t breathe
i, i
i can’t breathe

i can’t breathe
i can’t breathe
i, i
i can’t breathe
