I Can't Breathe

Ooh no! I can’t breathe When did my life become so cheap? Ooh no! I can’t breathe can somebody hear me crying out? Ooh no! I can’t breathe you taking another man’s life with ease I say! i can’t breathe I can’t take a breathe and it hurts so deep! Mr. Officer I thought you were brought to protect me Now you choking me You killing me In front of the world Every eye can see Why do you do that? Is this what you good at? Where did I go wrong? Or you just too strong? Is it because of my skin colour? Is it because I am black? Living in the lion’s den is safer Than to live in your world Ooh no! I can’t breathe When did my life become so cheap? Ooh no! I can’t breathe can somebody hear me crying out? Ooh no! I can’t breathe You taking another man’s life with ease I say! I can’t breathe I can’t take a breathe and it hurts so deep! I woke up this morning In a happy mood All of a sudden I saw in the news An innocent man gunned down Surprisingly the murderer is walking around Your city is full of terrorism Yet you point your fingers on others Nooo you can’t school me about human rights If you know what is right Then tell me why you take others’ life I saw you killing a man with you bare hand On the broad day light Hands up! Don’t shoot! Hands up! Don’t shoot! Ooh no! I can’t breathe When did my life become so cheap? Ooh no! I can’t breathe Can somebody hear me crying out? Ooh no! I can’t breathe You taking another man’s life with ease I say! I can’t breathe I can’t take a breathe and it hurts so deep!
