"Black Lives" lyrics

SephGotTheWaves

When mornin' lights, terrified
All this trauma in the news
I can't sleep at night
This ain't right, wanna see the light
I just give it up to God
It make it seem like it don't matter
But it matters
Black lives matter to me, woah
We've been through so much
It's too much, too much tragedy
Black lives matter to me, woah
Black lives matter to me

It's too much tragedy
They don't give a damn about police brutality
I woke up to a nightmare, that's reality (Reality)
I'm tired of this, I swear, that I can't breathe
Somethin' has to give in, steady hate
Up in this world that we live in
And they just take black lives for a livin'
Tryin' to use my platform, so they can listen
I can't stop signin' petitions

Mornin' lights, terrified
All this trauma in the news
I can't sleep at night
This ain't right, wanna see the light
I just give it up to God
It make it seem like it don't matter
But it matters
Black lives matter to me, woah
We've been through so much
It's too much, too much tragedy
Black lives matter to me, woah
Black lives matter to me

No reason for arrestin'
God, please, protect me
And those who protestin'
And they say feel us, but got the weapons
Make sure you vote in this year's election
All this trauma we didn't even start it
I'm not a criminal but to them, I'm a target
Don't like what they do to my people
I'm gonna keep on fightin' 'til we all equal

Mornin' lights, terrified
All this trauma in the news
I can't sleep at night
This ain't right, wanna see the light
I just give it up to God
It make it seem like it don't matter
But it matters
Black lives matter to me, woah
We've been through so much
It's too much, too much tragedy
Black lives matter to me, woah
Black lives matter to me
Black lives matter to me
