i can't breathe

my life is being choked out

i can't breathe

the noose of society tightens

i can't breathe

i want to go running but 

i can't breathe

i want to sit in my car and read but

i can't breathe

i want to make a living but

i can't breathe

i want to sing, and dance and enjoy life but

i can't breathe

they laughed as they pursued me so

i can't breathe

i just gave birth to a black son, Oh God!

i can't breathe

i want to take a walk to clear my head but

i can't breathe

im told i can't get angry because 

i can't breathe

i pull at the shackles around my protest because

i can't breathe

they fired tear gas at me, so now

i can't breathe

Lord, what am i to do, Lord what am i to do,

i can't breathe!!!

my heart is breaking because

i can't breathe

i can't breathe

i can't breathe

i can't breathe
