Aint Afraid - We Will Breathe (Entitled)

Funny you could feel entitled
To take away a life
But I can’t feel entitled to stand up for my rights
Sad that you can feel entitled
To kill him with your knee
But he can’t feel entitled
To just live his life and breathe
Funny you can feel entitled
With power in your skin
But I can’t feel entitled
With the skin that I am in
It’s funny you can feel entitled
With a system that benefits you
But anytime we want some justice seems to be an issue
Funny you can cause disruption
And gather all for nothin’
But we can’t even march for change or gather for discussion
About life and what is right
For change and what is wrong
Like “I Can’t Breathe”
Or walk down the street
“Don’t shoot” , It’s just a phone
We will breathe
By any means, do you feel me
We will breathe
I had a dream, do you hear me
We will breathe
By any means necessary
We will breathe
Lift every voice and sing
We will breathe
By any means, do you feel me
We will breathe
I had a dream, do you hear me
We will breathe
By any means necessary
We will breathe
Lift every voice and sing
We're demanding justice
For all of the injustice
Protect & serve, enforce the law but you think you're above it
It's heartbreaking to see
We all fit the description
Living in a world ran by systemic racism
But we shall overcome
My people are resilient
We're not asking you
We're telling you to stop the killings
We will breathe
By any means, do you feel me
We will breathe
I had a dream, do you hear me
We will breathe
By any means necessary
We will breathe
Lift every voice and sing
We will breathe
By any means, do you feel me
We will breathe
I had a dream, do you hear me
We will breathe
By any means necessary
We will breathe
Lift every voice and sing
We will breathe
By any means, do you feel me
We will breathe
I had a dream, do you hear me
We will breathe
By any means necessary
We will breathe
Lift every voice and sing
