Changes Lyrics by Jalen Parker

2020

[Verse 1]
My brothers and sister dying everyday
What does it take for us to not be afraid
I'm tired of seeing us die
By a hand that only lies
Protect and serve, yea right
The only ones your killing
Are the ones whose skin ain't bright
None of this makes sense
Yeah
You talk about our fathers
But y'all take em out our lives
Then you laugh up in our face
Talkin' bout we got a dead beat
Our fathers have done
More than you could ever comprehend
Let's not forget about our mothers
Brothers and our sisters
Rest in peace our angels
Never be forgotten
[Pre-Chorus]
I didn't know that color was a crime
A lot of the killers never did the time
I'm afraid to walk outside in broad day
Scared to hear what the cops are gonna say
Thought he had weapon, oh he resisted arrest
[Chorus]
Somethings gotta change
We've been fighting for centuries
It's starting to be come normal
I shouldn't have a live in a world like this
No no
Somethings gotta change
We've been fighting for centuries
It's starting to be come normal
I shouldn't have a live in a world like this
Like this
[Verse 2]
When we say black lives matter
We not sayin' that y'all don't matter
It's just, we're the ones getting kilt
For our skin
That shit should be a sin
I mean my momma can't even pretend
Look, yeah she scared as well
I can end up dead, or in a prison cell
[Pre-Chorus]
I didn't know that color was a crime
A lot of the killers never did the time
I'm afraid to walk outside in broad day
Scared to hear what the cops are gonna say
Thought he had weapon, oh he resisted arrest
[Chorus]
Somethings gotta change
We've been fighting for centuries
It's starting to be come normal
I shouldn't have a live in a world like this
No no
[Chorus]
Somethings gotta change
We've been fighting for centuries
It's starting to be come normal
I shouldn't have a live in a world like this
Like this
[Chorus]
Somethings gotta change
We've been fighting for centuries
It's starting to be come normal
I shouldn't have a live in a world like this
No no
[Chorus]
Somethings gotta change
We've been fighting for centuries
It's starting to be come normal
I shouldn't have a live in a world like this
Like this
