letra de black life matters - jimblah

[intro: jimblah, ellie may & both]
if only you could see what this all means
let’s talk about it
black life matters (black life matters, brother walker)
if only you could see what you’re doin’ to me (i stand with you in the room)
let’s talk about it

[verse 1: jimblah]
yeah
we hit the streets, beggin’ for the people to see
what our life worth, but they don’t wanna believe
claimin’ all lives matter, but you ain’t at the rally
i stand on the shoulders of the fam that come before me
just the same as you fam, so whatcha doin’
with the fact that you inherited this inheritance
took the privilеge, y’all took the wealth
took thе lives of innocent boys and girls
still denyin’ our experience, made to feel lesser
i’ve worked with these kids, and they’re tellin’ me they’re fed up
i’m workin’ with this white folk who knowin’ nothin’ better
i’m workin’ for the government, another pet n-gga
new day, same ish, nothin’ changed, we afraid
we glorify mediocrity up to this day
let’s be real about it, and maybe then
we can transform this country, heal the pain
for my great grand mama, for my nana, for my cousins
for my sisters and my mama, for our brothers up in lock up
for these white folk who sick and confused
and for these police who sick enough to treat us the way they do
for these politicians who forgot about what it means
to operate from a place of humanity, look
forget the pride and self-righteousness
this is gonna take a whole lot more than your good intent
come on, let’s go
[chorus: jimblah, ellie may & both]
if only you could see what this all means
black life matters (baby, baby, baby)
if only you could see what you’re doin’ to me (baby, baby, baby)
let’s talk about it

[verse 2: jimblah]
look, we sacrifice another black voice
why? just to prove another white point?
right, i will stand for the justice, i’ll tell you what the problem
this is not a problem, this is catastrophic
mama didn’t raise me to become complacent
nah, she showed me love in her heart, that’s so amazin’
so i’ma push it forward, prayin’ for the fallen, dreamin’ for the day
we can look it in the face and not walk on by
for the lies that they preach us, the violent
silent agreements, the pride and deceit
unwillingness to believe for the nightmare
that this done did to my dreamin’, i’m dreamin’, i’m dreamin’
of better ways, of a better day, and some change
that ain’t gonna take another couple hundred years, nah fam
we push above where we are, it ain’t hard
if we all got the courage to get up and get involved
with a little bit of love, c’mon

[chorus (entended): jimblah, ellie may & both]
if only you could see what this all means
that black life matters (baby, baby, baby)
if only you could see what you’re doin’ to me (baby, baby, baby)let’s talk about it (yeah, yeah)
baby, baby, baby
baby, baby, baby
baby, baby, baby (baby, ooh)
your black life matters
baby, baby, baby
baby, baby, baby (whoa, ooh)
baby, baby, baby (baby)
your black life matters
[outro: jimblah, ellie may, & both]
for the family, look
your black life matters
