Every Life Counts Lyrics by Hank Valencia

2020

Chorus (Hank):
Every life counts here
We ain’t got nothing to fear
Somehow it’s sheer

Verse I (Hank):
Ladies and gents
Open your eyes
Someone just died seeking help yelling “Mama” not just once, but twice
Day after day
Protests all the way
Whimpering, groaning and crying ‘til dying that made us dismay
Supervision corrupted
Noises at dawn
Don’t matter you judge ‘em, ‘cause we still accept them inside our lawn
Ghosts in the town
People go roam
We ain’t playing games, this is real life, he just wanted to go back home

Refrain (Hank):
Hurts like hell
Can’t really tell
But my heart speaks itself
Love exists
When someone dies
It’s time to speak yourself

Chorus (Hank):
Every life counts here
We ain’t nothing to fear
Somehow it’s sheer
Every life counts here (do you feel the same damn thing)
There ain’t nothing to fear
It’s time to appear

(CM in the kitchen)

Verse II (CM):
Superman, where you at?
This is injustice
I don’t wanna turn the TV off
Kids watch this
Let’s stop play pretending this shit exist
On a daily basis
Keep the comfort of your bed
‘Cuz ignorance is bliss

He was black so they pretend they don’t see him, uh
Same shit happened with the kid called Kian, uh
He was a kid in school, he was a human being
He was the vulnerable and it’s the open season

From the three-star
Land to overseas
We’re all screaming pretty please, pretty please
It was very obvious in the camera
Very scary like the military
Shot dead, warshocked officer, the family said

He was my son
Know he’ll never see the sun
The last thing he saw was a flash of gun
Like a pig on a cage
All this time we’ll remember all their name
But this time it ain’t gonna be the same

For the comfort of my safety I just need to dial three
But who do you call when they’re the ones on killing spree
Officer, I did nothing, let me free
Officer, I can’t breathe, I can’t breathe, no

Momma come and help me
This was never my choice
It was only me versus some four boys
This is the reality as much as you wanna avoid
Repeat after me: His name was George Floyd
Yeah

Final Chorus (Hank):
Every life counts here
We ain’t nothing to fear
Somehow it’s sheer
Please save me (save me)
Please save me
I just wanna be alive again
Every life counts here
Someday it’ll be so clear
