I Just Want To Live (Live) Lyrics

Why do you keep telling me that we're treated the same when it's clear that we're not?

How come when I try to do the same things that you do, out of fear, I get shot?

How can you not see the lies that you're

Telling yourself, he was dangerous, he was resisting?

Is my skin some type of weapon I can't see myself?

I don't see it, but you keep insisting

You say we're all equal slavery was so long ago

But this bed of lies isn't getting anymore comfortable

I wanna live in a world where there is peace

If all lives matter, then show me

All the hate makes it hard to breathe

I want to live

Please let me live

Why do you keep telling me that we're treated the same when it's clear that we're not?

How come when I try to do the same things that you do, out of fear, I get shot?

How can you not see the lies that you're

Telling yourself, he was dangerous, he was resisting?

Is my skin some type of weapon I can't see myself?

I don't see it, but you keep insisting

You say we're all equal slavery was so long ago

But this bed of lies isn't getting anymore comfortable

I wanna live in a world where there is peace

If all lives matter, then show me

All the hate makes it hard to breathe

I want to live

Please let me live

America is great again for those of you who don't look like me

I may not have chains on my feet but one thing's for sure

I'm still not free

America is great again for those of you who don't look like me

I may not have chains on my feet but one thing's for sure

I'm still not free

America is great again for those of you who don't look like me

I may not have chains on my feet but one thing's for sure

I'm still not free

I wanna live in a world where there is peace

If all lives matter, then show me

All the hate makes it hard to breathe

I want to live

Please let me live

Oh nah nah nah nah

Oh nah nah nah nah

The day is here and the time is now, say it loud

(I'm black and I'm proud)

The day is here and the time is now, say it loud

(I'm black and I'm proud)

The day is here and the time is now, say it loud

(I'm black and I'm proud)

The day is here and the time is now, say it loud

(I'm black and I'm proud)
