I can't breath, I can't breath!!! But because I'm big and black they continued to terrorise me Choking me until I seized to gasp for my final breathe Now I'm dead Looking down from the heavens wondering how could this be How could this be? So let me get this straight I died for so called selling illegally And you would think it was at least **** I was selling I was selling the american dream of creating Creating a profit.. To take care of my family Then they shot me And I couldn't stop it I saw death as clear as the time What is this
And if that's not a crime Then what is...
I told him I had a gun Even asked him if I could get my license from my pocket He said sure why not But as I proceeded to reach for my pocket he shot me anyways Now I'm dead Looking down from the heavens wondering what did I do What did I do? Why am I looking at myself stained red I got pulled over for a taillight but ended up satisfying someone's bloodlust There wasn't even a fuss But look at me now Dead six feet under
And if that's not a crime Then what is...
Can't you see They're picking us off one by one Getting off scott free by saying they feared for their lives What about our lives Shouldn't we be the ones panicking behinds our guns We can't even take a jog down the street without being accused of something Don't we have rights Last time I checked we're human too Not animals who deserves to be stuffed in cages And poked with sticks like they did back in the ages So how do we evade this Better yet... How are we supposed to survive this Black lives matter How many times do we have to say this
