SONG LYRICS
Short Version:

I can hear my brother saying “I can’t breathe”
Now I’m in the struggle saying “I can’t leave”
Calling out the violence of these racist police.
We ain’t gonna to stop ’till the people are free”
We ain’t gonna to stop ’till the people are free”

Long Version:

Verse 1
I can hear my brother saying “I can’t breathe”

We ain’t gonna to stop ’till the people are free”
We ain’t gonna to stop ’till the people are free”

Verse 2
I still hear my sister pleading ‘just tryin’ to sleep’
Now I’m in the struggle trying not to weep
Calling out the violence of these racist police.
We ain’t gonna to stop ’till the people are free”
We ain’t gonna to stop ’till the people are free”

Verse 3
I still hear my baby cry ‘this gun’s not real’
Now I’m in the struggle and saying ‘We can’t heal’
Calling out the violence of these racist police.
We ain’t gonna to stop ’till the people are free”
We ain’t gonna to stop ’till the people are free”

I still hear my neighbor say ‘hands up don’t shoot me’
Now I’m in the struggle with my heart on my sleeve
Calling out the violence of these racist police.
We ain’t gonna to stop ’till the people are free”
We ain’t gonna to stop ’till the people are free”
