For all the fallen victims of police brutality and antiblack violence.
“SPECIAL THANKS TO ALL MY PATREON SUPPORTERS WHO WERE AN ESSENTIAL PART OF MAKING THIS HAPPEN!” – Andre Henry
He was alive for just a few days
But he scared someone
At the park with
His little toy gun
Little baby boy, and a threat
Yeah, we cry for him
But we don’t have
Many tears left
Saying, “Oh, oh!”
Woah!
How long
Must we sing
These songs?
Woah!
How long
Must we sing
These songs?
No, it won’t stop because we’re upset
And it won’t stop because of our fear
No, it won’t stop until we repent of
All the black bodies broken ‘round here
She was alive for just a few days
Tore the world apart
With the broke light on the back of her car
Mortal sin that leadeth to death
Yeah, we cry for her
But we don’t have
Many tears left
Saying, “Oh, oh!”
Woah!
How long
Must we sing
These songs?
Woah!
How long
Must we sing
These songs?
No, it won’t stop because we’re upset
And it won’t stop because of our fear
No, it won’t stop because we need rest
No, it won’t stop because of our tears
No, it won’t stop until we confess
All the blood that we spill around here
No, it won’t stop until we repent of
All the Black bodies broken ‘round here
All the Black bodies broken 'round here
All the Black bodies broken 'round here
No, it won't stop until we repent of
All the Black bodies broken 'round here
Won’t stop because we’re upset
(And it) won’t stop because of our fear
(No, it) won’t stop because we need rest
(No, it) won’t stop because of our tears
(No, it) won’t stop until we confess
All the blood that we spill around here
No, it won’t stop until we repent of
All the Black bodies broken ‘round here
Wayoh! (Wayoh!)
Wayoh! (Wayoh!)
Wayoh! (Wayoh!)
Wayoh!
Woah!
How long
Must we sing
These songs?
Woah! (Whoa!)
How long
Must we sing
These songs?
No, it won’t stop because we’re upset
And it won’t stop because of our fear
No, it won’t stop because we need rest
No, it won’t stop because of our tears
No, it won’t stop until we confess
All the blood that we spill around here
No, it won’t stop until we repent of
All the Black bodies broken ‘round here
All the Black bodies broken ‘round here
All the Black bodies broken ‘round here
No, it won’t stop until we repent of
All the Black bodies broken ‘round here
All the Black bodies broken ‘round here
All the Black bodies broken ‘round here
No, it won’t stop until we repent of
All the Black bodies broken ‘round here
All the Black bodies broken ‘round here
All the Black bodies broken ‘round here
