I Can't Breathe

Queen Ifrica – I Can't Breathe
Lyric sheet | From the album Climb

Oh oh
I can hear my neighbour crying "I Can't Breathe"
Now I'm in the struggle
I can't leave
Calling out the violence of the racist Police
We ain't gonna stop ... til people are free
We ain't gonna stop ... til people are free

Swing low
Sweet chariot
Coming forth to carry me home
Swing low
Sweet chariot
Coming forward to carry me home

The topic of racism is a sensitive one
Hard to even figure out where it begun
It is the reason Jah Jah made us this way
Why can't we all just get along
Allowing our children to play
Showing them a whole better way
Growing just like the birds and the bees
One human family
I can hear my neighbour crying "I Can't Breathe"
Now I'm in the struggle
I can't leave
Calling out the violence of the racist Police
We ain't gonna stop ... til people are free
We ain't gonna stop ... til people are free

My nation
The black people
Is a wonderful race
If you could get to know us
You would appreciate
The fact that you get three strikes and we only get one
Your kids go to College – ours go to prison

I can hear my neighbour crying "I Can't Breathe"
Now I'm in the struggle
I can't leave
Calling out the violence of the racist Police
We ain't gonna stop ... til people are free
We ain't gonna stop ... til people are free
