something tells me i'm not alone
ghosts inside of my fuckin phone
government, they be listening
to every thought that I fuckin know

how are we so okay so okay with this?
how do they get away with this?
they get mad when we see them murder
but they can look at my messages

put a murder on CNN
say I love you through a VPN
we can't have our community
cuz all these opps, they keep creepin in

Fiji water in my backpack
tear gas getting kicked back
how we supposed to not fight back
when they're tellin us we ain't worth jack

I cry, you cry, we all got tears to show
when you fight, I fight, we wont't do this alone

If you tell me what you need from me I wont be too far from you
we got so much fight left to do
can't breathe. I'll scream
cuz I'm black and I'm blue
If you tell me what you need from me I wont be too far from you
we got so much fight left to do
can't breathe. I'll scream
because I'm black and I'm blue

this message goes out to you
my people marching in munity
police under scrutiny
we're coming for you
take all these pigs out the schools
defund these killers in blue
disband the whole fuckin crew
prison is slavery too

sick of all of these politicians
rehearsing all of the same lines
freedom is our only mission
how many more of us have to die?

the mayor here is an uncle tom
wrong side every fucking time
just because you've got the same skin
dont mean you'll ever be kin of mine

I cry, you cry, we all got tears to show
when you fight, I fight, we wont't do this alone

If you tell me what you need from me I wont be too far from you
we got so much fight left to do
can't breathe. I'll scream
cuz I'm black and I'm blue
If you tell me what you need from me I wont be too far from you
we got so much fight left to do
can't breathe. I'll scream
because I'm black and I'm blue
because I'm black and I'm blue
because I'm black and I'm blue

can't breathe. I'll scream
because I'm black and I'm blue
we got so much fight left to do
can't breathe. can't scream
cuz I'm black and I'm blue

because I'm black and I'm blue
because I'm black and I'm blue
