Miss you so much like a breeze thru the trees
They took your last breath now I can't breathe
Or walk da streets at night
And that aint' right
Protect and Serve me. Don't take my life
So senselessly. Don't make sense to me
All I wanna be is free... Yeah
Damn man...
I heard freeze... Shots fired.. I can't breathe
Body hit the ground...
My soul rose past the trees...
But that's reality for us minorities
They don't care about us... Just another casualty
Case us up... Hoping that we cop a plea
Lock us up... Correctional facilities
So it seems the cops is on a killing spree
Day by day... Destroying our communities
They let the cops free.. judges grant immunity
With no heart at all... left a broken family
I shed tears, felt pain.. Such a tragedy...
So senselessly... it don't make no sense to me
Protect and Serve me... Rather take my life from me...
We're all kings and queens in all actually
Wanting to breathe and be free... Why you shooting me?
Express my self... Now it seems they mad at me... ME
Miss you so much like a breeze thru the trees
They took your last breath now I can't breathe
Or walk da streets at night
And that aint' right
Protect and Serve me. Don't take my life
So senselessly. Don't make sense to me
All I wanna be is free... Yeah.
(I don't know what they saw in addition to what we saw, but there's no way Bill
That you can look at that video tape and come back with a no indictment Period)
Wait. Stop. I already froze
You got me on my knees...
My hands behind my back
Why your pistols aimed at me?
It can't be just my race
And we're all human beings
Cause you got a badge don't give you the right to believe I can't breathe
Whatchu mean?
Pour out some liquor take a look at the bigger picture
They killing our fathers, our brothers like we're a problem...
They're trying to fix us
Just let us be...
We're supposed to be free
The American dream...
When all I see is brutality
Corruption and greed...
All this insanity
I need clarity I can't breathe...
It could have been me
It's bad enough we have beef on the street
Now we beefing police
Supposed to keep the peace...
Quick to pull the heat
It's time to be the wolf...
And not the sheep
It's time we unite and speak
And shine the light on what it be...
Talk about rights...
They know they wrong...
This can't be life
Miss you so much like a breeze thru the trees
They took your last breath now I can't breathe
Or walk da streets at night
And that aint' right
Protect and Serve me. Don't take my life
So senselessly. Don't make sense to me
All I wanna be is free... Yeah
