Bloodshed Lyrics by Omari Hardwick

2017

[Verse 1: Josiah Bell]
I feel safer in my dreams
Than to wake up to reality
Another officer shooting
Can barely breathe from pollution, yeah
For all my unborn sons
I wonder if they'll even have a chance
Just from the color of their skin
So I pose a question
[Hook: Josiah Bell]
Can we find a way?
Gotta wake up, people
Let's find our way
Must wake up, people
We need love today
For our children's sake
Can we find our way?
No more bloodshed
No more bloodshed
No more bloodshed
No more bloodshed
There is peace on the cross
From the blood that was lost
No more bloodshed
No more bloodshed
[Verse: Omari Hardwick]
This ain't just about blacks killing blacks
That would be like doing three fifths of this crack
Why would I do that?
Like leaving out more verses or no more effin' curses or no more rock to rap
This is about bl-bl-black young Robin Hoods snatching grey purses, white cops shoot him in the back
'Cause he was colored, the shade of Freddie Gray or Mike Brown or something close to that
I wish 2Pac could come back
Vietnam just turned into Iraq no more Saddam, but church is still under attack
Whether three little girls from [?] or whether young white kid invited to pray with eight blacks, trigger's pulled at an all-time high
Negroes trying to find out how to get to the sky
Hate at an all-time supply at your local store
Neighbourhood bar, you can always buy the skies full of overnight stars
While Xbox deals with characters who die
X marks the spot where Malcolm was shot, soon after King was left alive
Pools of blood for Peter Pans
