Say Their Names (Rest in Power)

Rest in peace Aaron Bailey
Losing lives almost daily. People still debate
Bout which lives are being taken?
Breonna Taylor a lady, in her home: they invaded
Bullets they love spraying; lives are being degraded
Philandro Castile. Same age as my peers
Sorry for what you feel. I wanna help you all heal
Dante Parker: Five kids.. he was a father
They Tased him to death
Now his kids lives are much harder
I’m sorry Eric Gardner. I promise we ain’t forgotten
This for Ronell Foster. Cat Daddy. rest and prosper
This a problem we can’t avoid. I’m screaming 4 George Floyd
We protest in streets til the system hears the noise
There isn’t much choice. It’s speak up or lose ya voice
Choose to be quiet & problems you can’t avoid
The evil still persist Racism still exists
We have to come together, assist instead of split
Mya Hall’s life lost as it was about to start
Black Lives Matter. US been getting dark.
Mr Perry, India Kager. Kept their baby out of danger
Both shot by cops. Both wounds became fatal
Janet Wilson done wrong. I’m sorry that you are gone
I’m so hurt for the people. In this world you do belong
Keith McLeod and Stephon clark. Two others we seen depart
We need justice served! Tamir Rice was in a park
This is just the start to the fire that needed spark
We gotta make change for Jamar Clark and Rashard
And Deshawn Perkins. The police they make us nervous
As Americans were not learning. As humans they don’t deserve this!
Until what end? Dominic Hutchinson And Willie Tillman
are more than just statistics They were all humans Valued citizens
Pray for Tanisha Anderson and Tony Robinson
to all my past team mates I thank you for what you did
You went and let me in, showed love to a kid
I’m sorry Kevin Hicks, that cracker he wasn’t shit
Still got my hoody on. Travyon Martin, fuck the pigs
Shouts Alton Sterling: You and ya fam was more deserving
I try to sleep at night, with you knowing that still we hurting
I’ve grown to understand: That I’ll never understand
So the most I comprehend is: that I stand right with them
So please shoot me down. I stand to move the crowd
RIP Marco Loud. Time for change is right now
If you don’t like the message I promis2e you thinking foul
If you not tryna protect it. I promise you out of style
Racism for clowns. Let’s bring the system down
With the numbers on the Dow. Military are on the prowl
This is freedom? I’m like how? This America getting wild
If this really my country? I promise to make a vow
To shine light on what’s right and fight hate in the shrouds
That Hialeah Chico, for the people: I’m holding down
Black Lives Matter. Rest In Peace to
Ahmaud Arbery
Bennie Tignor
Christopher McCorvey
David Mcatee
Ezell Ford
Freddie Gray
George Joseph Mann

LaMontez Jones

Paul Oneal
Pamela Turner
Quintonio Legrier
Rumain Brisbon

And all the other victims lost to the real pandemic known to the world
As Police Brutality in the United States of America
