I Can't Breathe (Black Lives Matter) Lyrics

Oh Lawd, yes mi say man

A war dis yuh know man

Yuh can hold mi 'n throw mi to di ground

Yuh can choke mi, 'cause my skin is black or brown

Yuh can chase mi, press your knee upon my neck, oh Lawd

Because I, I, I, Lawed ah can't breathe

Oh no man

Ah can't breathe, I can't breathe

Mi tryin' to catch mi breathe, wit yuh knee upon my neck

Ah can't breathe, no Lawd ah can't breathe

No reason for di pain, there's nothin' to gain

'Cause mi can't breathe

There's no reason, for you to act dis way bredda

Mi a human, no matter what they say

Di Mi times a changing but di road is long n' steep

Still I, I, I, mi say man, ah can't breathe

No bredda man, oh Lawed

Ah can't breathe, I can't breathe

Mi tryin' to catch mi breathe wit your knee upon mi neck

Ah can't breathe, ah can't breathe

No reason for di pain, there's nothin'to gain

'Cause mi can't breathe

Mmmm bredda oh Lawd

The world need more love

N' all di while mi struggling, to take care of mi own

Mi fightin' fa mi freedom, like a dog without a bone

Mi look toward mi Saviour as ah sense I'm goin' home

Oh, n' I, I, I, Lawd, ah can't breathe

Mi say man, oh

Ah can't breathe, ah can't breathe

Mi tryin' to catch mi breathe, wit your knee upon my neck

Ah can't breathe, oh Lawd ah can't breathe

No reason for di pain, there's nothtin' to gain

'Cause mi can't breathe

Ah can't breathe mi can't breathe mi can't breathe

No matta wat a do oh Lawd

Awe, policeman say… no matta wat a do
