World On Fire
Lyrics
I sit alone in my room envisioning freedom
Contemplating my every step
Heavy weight in my breath, a heavy head on the shoulders that my mama gave me
I sit alone in my room envisioning freedom
Contemplating my every step
Heavy weight in my breath, a heavy head on the shoulders that my mama gave me
Meditate
Meditate
Cater to your mental
Never say
Never
Can’t no weapon form against you
If there really is a God he must be Black and tired
So many Black bodies, he giving life to the lifeless
I’m tryna rationale with myself cause I can’t buy in
To the thought that he’d be silent when all my people are dying
We living in the furnace called earth & it is under fire
Waiting for the 4th figure, to appear right beside us
Plagues sweeping our nations, government occupations
Posted up in the street just to pepper spray us and mace us
Tear gas in my eyes, but I never cry I’m prepared to die
Unapologetic, unfettered, this is my black life
I sit alone in my room envisioning freedom
With further thought I don’t believe we could ever achieve it
400 years of discrimination against us
And they still out to get us
I sit alone in my room envisioning freedom
Contemplating my every step
Heavy weight in my breath, a heavy head on the shoulders that my mama gave me
I sit alone in my room envisioning freedom
Contemplating my every step
Heavy weight in my breath, a heavy head on the shoulders that my mama gave me
World on fire
I can’t breathe
Take my life
Set me free
World on fire
I can’t breathe
Take my life
Set me free
I sit alone in my room envisioning freedom
Contemplating my every step
Heavy weight in my breath, a heavy head on the shoulders that my mama gave me
I sit alone in my room envisioning freedom
Contemplating my every step
Heavy weight in my breath, a heavy head on the shoulders that my mama gave me
Meditate
Meditate
Cater to your mental
Never say
Never
Can’t no weapon form against you
If there really is a God he must be Black and tired
So many Black bodies, he giving life to the lifeless
I’m tryna rationale with myself cause I can’t buy in
To the thought that he’d be silent when all my people are dying
We living in the furnace called earth & it is under fire
Waiting for the 4th figure, to appear right beside us
Plagues sweeping our nations, government occupations
Posted up in the street just to pepper spray us and mace us
Tear gas in my eyes, but I never cry I’m prepared to die
Unapologetic, unfettered, this is my black life
I sit alone in my room envisioning freedom
With further thought I don’t believe we could ever achieve it
400 years of discrimination against us
And they still out to get us
I sit alone in my room envisioning freedom
Contemplating my every step
Heavy weight in my breath, a heavy head on the shoulders that my mama gave me
I sit alone in my room envisioning freedom
Contemplating my every step
Heavy weight in my breath, a heavy head on the shoulders that my mama gave me
World on fire
I can’t breathe
Take my life
Set me free
World on fire
I can’t breathe
Take my life
Set me free
