Momma I Can't Breathe

Momma I can't breathe
They are kneeing me down 
​​​​​Momma I can't breathe
The air can't reach into my lungs
​​​​​They are called police 
​​​​​​But momma they're killing our kind
The eyes are burning; I can't see 
​​​​The last glimpse of hope is gone 
Momma I can't breathe
Three men in blue are holding me down 
Momma I can't breathe
They show no mercy for my cries The air feels thicker with every squeeze 
Momma I can't make it this time
They are called police
But momma they're watching me die Momma I can't breathe 
They'll probably say it was my fault Momma they'll try to pin it on me 
To free the men who took my life

Being Me

Racism has to stop!  7 words... Colour doesn't matter we are all human ​​​​​​... Why is that so hard a concept to understand? A lot of us get it. Words fail me sometimes ?
