[Verse 1]
I pull the flag down
It should be half mast, whoo
We’re black and blue, too
Shouldn’t have to ask
People are fallin'
Everyone’s target practice
We’re human being numbers
And right now we need one another
A beating that goes boom, boom and
The united nation goes, "Get the police"
And the White House goes
Flatline like beep—beep, beep, beep, beep
[Pre-Chorus]
'Cause I’m dyin' to prove
It’s not me
I will do what I have to
Do you believe that I mean what I say?
But hе stopped breathin'
I think the wholе thing was orchestrated
[Chorus]
God, if there is one, can you come and give us a sign?
God, if you're up there, can you make us all colorblind?
God, if there is one, right now would sure be a good time
God, if there is one, may one day we come to your side
Oh, I'm on your side
Why, why?
Ay, lies
Floyd
Oh, ooh, yeah
God, if there is one
Ooh, ooh, eeh
[Verse 2]
I don’t Know what it’s like
But I do know I need to get on my knees
You are not the only one that notices and wants to be set free, yeah, oh-oh-oh-oh
If god gave us his only son, not to say his name in vain
Would he spare my life then turn around and go throw rocks at you?
Wrong is wrong, sir, just be careful who the fuck you're talking to
I know it sounds crazy, but what else do we all got to lose, now?
Ah, hey, hey, yeah
Ahh, ahh, ahh
Oh, huh
Oh, huh
Oh, huh
Ohh-ahh
[Outro]
God, if there is one, can you come and give us a sign?
God, if there is one, can you make us all colorblind?
