Lyrics
Verse I:
I'm tired, boss, of all the pain that reigns in the world,
injustice's waves, fierce blamestorms, merciless shores,
a facade pandemic behind the masks keeps hopes unequal
and when you break there's no one there to break your fall
Chorus:
I can't breathe, I can't breathe, mama,
I can't breathe, I can't breathe, mama,
I can't breathe, I can't breathe, mama, if I can't be free,
I can't breathe, I can't breathe, mama,
I can't breathe, I can't breathe, mama,
I can't breathe, I can't breathe, mama, if I can't be me
Verse II:
We all arise unique as one like the shades of the rainbow
no soul is better than, no soul should stand below,
is not the remedy for pain the pain of a scapegoat
that leaves us children of a lesser love, of a lesser God
Chorus:
I can't breathe, I can't breathe, mama,
I can't breathe, I can't breathe, mama,
I can't breathe, I can't breathe, mama, if I can't be free,
I can't breathe, I can't breathe, mama,
I can't breathe, I can't breathe, mama,
I can't breathe, I can't breathe, mama, if I can't be me
