Zo, G Honcho, Starside, ZO, G honcho, Starside - Don't Shoot Me

Текст песни

This country must understand
The reasons of these riots
The black community is placed in consistent situations
Attempting to protect ourselves from a system not created in furthering our
development
Like Dr. Martin Luther King once said, a riot is the language of the unheard
And we will no longer be kept silent
Don’t shoot me (Don't shoot me)
Officer, don’t shoot me (Don't shoot me)
I promise I got a family (A baby girl)
And stay up off my neck please (I cannot breathe)
Don’t shoot me (Don't shoot me)
Officer, don’t shoot me (Officer)
I promise I got a family (I got a baby girl)
And stay up off my neck please (I cannot breathe)
She can’t breathe, he can’t breathe, no, we can’t breathe
You say stop the violence, why you think we in these streets?
You say stop the riots, but don’t listen to our needs
Instead y’all take y’all knee and then proceed to the back of our necks
Too many my brothers and sisters is dead and now we livin' through them
Taking a stand, no, no, no, won’t hear it again
Fuck the system, fuck the world we live in, how y’all killing?
Tryna paint us out as villains, pray for children fixed up, don’t shoot me
Don’t shoot me (Don't shoot me)
Officer, don’t shoot me (Don't shoot me)
I promise I got a family (A baby girl)
And stay up off my neck please (I cannot breathe)
Don’t shoot me (Don't shoot me)
Officer, don’t shoot me (Officer)
I promise I got a family (I got a baby girl)
And stay up off my neck please (I cannot breathe)
I’m screaming don’t shoot me (Don't shoot)
Opps out here killin', man, this ain’t no move (This ain’t no movie)
These niggas is goofy (They goofy)
Just 'cause I’m black, they gon' try to remove me (Remove me)
Cop clutchin' a tooly (He clutchin')
Bitch, go toe-to-toe and get hit with this two-piece
Fuck 12, you a bully (Bully)
Pickin' us off one by one, this shit cruelty
How we supposed to stay calm when they treat us like target practice?
We don’t know how to act
Racist police been doin' this shit, they pull us over just to see if we black
Can’t run a stop sign without havin' an opp hop out and point the nine in my
back
I’m just tryna survive, my nigga, in the streets of hell with some demons,
get back
Don’t shoot me (Don't shoot me)
Officer, don’t shoot me (Don't shoot me)
I promise I got a family (A baby girl)
And stay up off my neck please (I cannot breathe)
Don’t shoot me (Don't shoot me)
Officer, don’t shoot me (Officer)
I promise I got a family (I got a baby girl)
And stay up off my neck please (I cannot breathe)
The longer the black community is not treated with equality and justice
continues to not be served
These riots and violent acts will maintain throughout our present and future
We need justice, we need peace, we need equality
We need help
Black lives matter
Enough is enough
The time is now
And I can’t breathe
Don’t shoot me
Officer
I got a baby girl
I cannot breathe
