Why am I suffer for the color of my skin
Why must I rot in hell
Why must they do to me the way they do me
Why must I be treated like I'm treated
Why am I why am I not viewed as a human
Why cant I just live in peace
Why must I get harassed by the police
Why must I be on the ground
Why
It's so wicked in my city, cause when I walk up in my city.
I might die up in my city, don't cry but it's a pity. Dem po
pos might get me and they might never be indicted even

dedicated my soul to stop these black men from dying
Breanna mama was crying. She wasn't supposed to lose her
daughter. I'm so mad man this hits home because I got

Ahberry is now deceased. I can't stop grieving. It's easy
for a white man to kill a black man in vain but when a
