They Dont Care About Us by Truee K Lyrics
[Intro]
Uh
Yeah yeah
I can’t, I can’t
[Verse 1]
I can’t breathe
My brothers last words before pronounced
I can’t breathe
I feel the pain he felt when he was down
It’s hard to see the bigger picture when you out of the frame
Black or white we still equal and we all bleed the same
So what makes you different
Different from me because my skin
I ain’t chose to be my color, but I’m proud of my skin
So what, I’m not white so I can’t fit in, or get in?
Reroute my steps so I can makе a living just so I can fit in
Is that so? Uh
The land of the free
Trump, cops are still killing us is it too hard to see
For you to bе a man, instead you brought the fire burn us down like third degree
Criticize our protest while you watch the world on your TV
And the world hate you
I never hate but I just want to show you part of my view
We need a change
And if you’re not willing to make a change, that’s okay
My vote will only count against you
You won’t be my president
[Chorus]
All I want to say is that they don’t really care about us
All I want to say is that they don’t really care about us
So we stand up so we stand up
So we stand up so we stand up
[Bridge]
A moment of silence, for all the lives lost due to police brutality
[Verse 2]
You can beat me but you’ll never bring me down
If you don’t feel me use your voice and make a sound
Black is beautiful in every way around
Another victim on the ground
I’m tired of my people being killed God heal them
Tired of my people being killed cause you fear them
I fear that one day my life might be taken and my last words will be “Don’t kill me”
I want this to change
The world is in pain
So what we 'gone do
We 'gone stand up
[Chorus]
All I want to say is that they don’t really care about us
All I want to say is that they don’t really care about us
So we stand up so we stand up
So we stand up so we stand up
[Outro]
We are placed in situations where we don’t have a voice
Our country, let me rephrase, the world was built over time with sweat, blood, and tears so we could live a better life
We teach the children of the future about our historical events that needed to take place in order for us live a better life, and to not repeat the same mistakes that were made
We’re all a family
And we need to stick together in order to not repeat history
In order for all lives to matter, each and every individual in the world, has to matter
Stand up
Say his name
Say their names
Uh
Yeah yeah
I can’t, I can’t
[Verse 1]
I can’t breathe
My brothers last words before pronounced
I can’t breathe
I feel the pain he felt when he was down
It’s hard to see the bigger picture when you out of the frame
Black or white we still equal and we all bleed the same
So what makes you different
Different from me because my skin
I ain’t chose to be my color, but I’m proud of my skin
So what, I’m not white so I can’t fit in, or get in?
