Trying to Breathe (feat. Dre Butterz)

Four hundred years we've been fighting for this Living just to fight We're just fighting to live It's like we fighting for our rights And a right to exist Imagine how the world looks through the life of a kid You don't what we been through Figure cause we black then you know what we into Trayvon coulda been you Breonna coulda been me Yeah I'm just stating facts Crazy how we say we love you But you can't say it back Prayers feel different When yo momma hopes you make it back Getting pulled over by the cops Seeing how they react How you're whole race against us Knowing God gave us that I'm not tryna change the world Just tryna change the act I just wanna feel it Everybody treated the same But I'm the realest I can see how far we done came We don't deserve that This life, we're taking it back You don't know what it's like to be black Can you blame us We been fighting for a cause And they still make us die for respect Can you blame us Tryna take a knee for some And they still got their knees on our necks We're just trying to breathe Breathe We're just trying to breathe We're just trying to breathe, ah-- We're just trying to breathe Please Lord help us breathe We're just trying to breathe Help us to survive Lord Imagine walking down the street Being followed and somebody approach you Cause they feeling like you don't belong A pack of skittles and some tea Got him feeling a little intimidated You ain't even did nun wrong So we're supposed to turn a cheek When you're preying on the weak Got the wrong generation We ain't tryna hear no speech We ain't tryna hear you speak We ain't tryna see the hatred that you teach Got the the whole nation bouta hit the streets Ah-- I won't be quiet It's only right that we riot My ancestors done fought And we fighting to stay alive Big shoes to fill and I'm following right behind Screaming Black Lives Matter You know I'm covering mine See the how come What you know about some Real revolutionaries I'm following Malcolm I support the cause Y'all just do it for ya album Tryna see results I won't stop until the outcome Come Can you blame us We been fighting for a cause And they still make us die for respect Can you blame us Tryna take a knee for some And they still got their knees on our necks We're just trying to breathe Ohh-- breathe We're just trying to breathe Trying to breathe We're just trying to breathe We keep fighting, fighting a good fight We're just trying to breathe Lord wrap us around your loving arms
