Headlines (Justice For Us) Lyrics by JeRonelle

Finally

2016

*Spoken*
Our people are dying in the streets
And it seems like no one cares
Will anybody speak up, will anybody take a stand
We’re still fighting to be heard, we’re still fighting for justice
This is our story
Hands up, don’t shoot
Mr. Officer my age is only 22
I got dreams I wanna see
Goals I wanna reach for both myself and my community
See I work hard each and every day
Trying hard to bring a smile to my mama’s face
I wanna make her proud
But I can’t do it if I’m laying on the ground
I’m not sure if you were aware
But for me this is reality
And I’m living it everyday
No matter what I do, wear, or say
In a world where we all see color
Why can’t we just see each other
Then maybe one day you will see
Then you’ll understand what its like to be me
We’re sick of reading all these headlines
We’re tired and we’ve had enough
What’s it gonna take to see some change now
All we really want is justice for us
I’m doing this for all my people
We’re angry and we’re so fed up
What’s it gonna take to see some change now
All we really want is justice for us
Please don’t pull the trigger
Even though, to you, I’m just another nigga
I got people who believe in me, pray for me, people who support my dreams
So don’t put me in a bodybag
I’m not gonna be a hashtag
I just wanna live and spread the light
And have a little peace of mind
(Repeat Bridge)
(Repeat Chorus)
*Spoken*
Trayvon, Eric, Sean, Mike, Sandra, Kendra, Oscar, Emmitt, Kendrick
Freddie, Tamir, Sam, Walter, Jonathan, Christian, and the many others…
We haven’t forgotten about you and we speak your name
(Repeat Chorus)
