12.01.2022 Lyrics for a new song that I thought I’d share it’s called I Can’t Breathe Chorus run run run run ... we will run no more Time to fight for justice And show the dogs the door 1) George was a laying Laying on the ground Knee in his neck No justice here is found 2)People were a screaming Others they did cry Eight long minutes It took George to die 3) He called out for his Mama Saying I can’t breathe Another black man dies From police brutality (Chorus) (Bridge) So stand your ground my friends Don’t you back down A time of reckoning is coming The time for justice is now (Chorus) 4) People are a marching Out in the streets Calling out for justice That is what they seek 5) For black lives matter No matter what they say All life is equal Under the sun that burns today (Chorus)
