lirik lagu micah bournes - how come me here?

[verse 1]
the slaves were mistreated so bad
and sometimes they had to just
pour out of their soul
the way they were treated
they couldn’t understand
why they were in this strange land
they didn’t ask to come here
some people would like to send us back
but we didn’t come here on our own
we were brought here against our will
and now we’re hеre to stay
america must work togethеr
suffer together
grow together
because we helped to make this country
what it is
but then the negro spiritual
speaks out of the soul of that
black man and that black woman
i wish i never was born

[verse 2]
i got questions for you lord
but i’m pretty sure ain’t no answer
in the universe make black existence hurt any less
are we cursed are we blessed
why let us be born in a land
where money is god
and our lives ain’t worth a cent
how they cry for windows broken
when we protest in distress
but they justify the popos
when they choking us to death
and the preacha promise
everything is workin’ for my best
but i fail to see the purpose
of this war upon our flesh
we hungry despite our blood and our sweat
even though we steady hustlin
still we deep in this debt
weepin on every evenin
ain’t no joy in the mornin
injuries never healin
the battle just keep on warrin
couldn’t rest if we wanna
we drownin in all this trauma
mental health in the sewer
just keep your head above water
just keep your head above water
just breathe my brotha breathe
screamin’ at my creator
heaven what is your beef
you know this black is beautiful
why you watchin us bleed
tell me how come me here
when will you set us free
tryin’ hard to believe
but losing faith in you lord
if you ain’t breakin these bonds
i wish i never was born
[verse 3]
how do you let them grow up
without making them feel like
they’re already doomed
just like
thinking about it that
it already makes it seem like
there’s nothing to
um it’s weird
there’s nothing to look forward to
it’s it’s a hard existence

[verse 4]
beforehand because people are like
you gotta sit your black boys down
you gotta have a conversation with them
and tell them
the world is gonna hate you
to some extent you wanna prepare them
but to another extent right now
i’m like i’d rather really focus on
making sure that they are rock solid
in knowing who they are
if somebody calls you something
and it’s not true
should you let it offend you
and they’re like
well sometimes yeah it hurts
and i say
it usually only hurts
if you believe it
if you don’t believe it
if you really understand
who you are
it’s not gonna bother you
i know who i am
[vere 5]
it’s not so much that i’m like
that i believe it
but it’s exhausting to know
no matter how i act
no matter how kind i am
no matter how good
of a person i am
whatever that means
there will be a large amount of people
that always see me as a dangerous person
and you know what
on some days i snap
on some days i’m like
i’m not doing anything to you
you know
i am out here just trying to be alive
leave me alone
