lirik lagu jerome farah - i can't breathe
[verse 1]
welcome to black boy boulevard
it’s far from amazing
where there’s chalk~sketched silhouettes of brothers on pavement
where there white boy raised and the black boy erased
this guy’s in shackles, we cuffs
it’s that modern day slavery
where my nose is wide and my lips is swole
and so this whip i’m driving
that must be stolen, i mean
[pre~chorus]
what’s he hiding?
what’s he holding?
if that [?]
then (du~du~du~du~du~du)
[chorus]
i can’t breathe, i can’t breathe
put your knee in my neck when it’s needing a breath
i can’t breathe, i can’t breathe
i know that freedom is living with no fear in my chest
but i cross my heart but don’t hope to die (don’t hope to die)
pray i make it home tonight (pray i make it home alive)
i can’t breathe, i can’t breathe (can’t breathe, can’t breathe)
[verse 2]
my mama place zimbabwe
blood inside of my d.n.a
so the history of my pigment’s been written all on my face
so i won’t accomodate to that sh~t that i can’t relate
like yelling ‘all lives matter’ with privilege in your veins
it’s h~lla hard to be an optimist
when we optionless
documents say we in danger if them cops exist
life is like a box of chocolates
and no i’m not convinced
when chocolate kids spending life in a box
for the same crime a white kid
[pre~chorus]
what’s he hiding?
what’s he holding?
if that [?]
then (du~du~du~du~du~du)
[chorus]
i can’t breathe, i can’t breathe
put your knee in my neck when it’s needing a breath (oh please)
i can’t breathe, i can’t breathe
just know that, that freedom is living with no fear in our chests (yeah)
but i cross my heart but don’t hope to die (hope i do not die)
pray i make it home tonight (pray i make it home alive)
i can’t breathe, i can’t breathe (can’t breathe)
[bridge]

another daughter growing up without a father

[verse 3]
i know my skin ain’t fair so the way they treat us just ain’t fair
i know my skin ain’t fair so the way they treat us just~
(yeah yeah yeah)
(come on!)
won’t you wake up
(hey, hey)
we just left a black king and a black queen
black [?]
