why - brocco1i lyrics

in honor of the black lives matter movement, i want to dedicate one of my songs to the cause. we need to fight for justice, equality, and for the reform of this failing nation
we can’t sit here and expect the problem to solve itself. we have to take the streets and fight for our lives
if we don’t, they’re gonna keep taking them and nothing is going to change

why, why, why, why (x8)

why it always seem like i surrender my rights
why it always go wrong even though i know i’m right
why you always stop the protest, trying to hide us from the light
why you always tryna oppress us tryna take away the fight
why’m [i’m] getting weird looks cuz of the colour of my skin
you don’t know what i’ve been through, you don’t know where i’ve been
why we getting ridiculed by the ones we trust
to protect and serve, that gon’ need a lot of work

i got a feelin’ everyday i’m finna risk my life (yeah)
we gotta stand tall, stand high, stand bright (yeah)
i know just how you feeling we gon’ get thru this alright (yeah)
if it gonna take a war, we gon’ stand up, we gon’ fight (yeah)
it’s a struggle in this country ‘cuz of the colour of my skin (yeah)
i could never trust the cops, i could never trust a deal (yeah)
everyday’s [is] another story, roll it back from the beginning (yeah)
evil world, evil people, but the cause is always gleaming (yeah)
why us, man, why trump then
why you always tryna prove you’re a tough man
why we always get stopped when we walking
why we always get shot when we joggin’
why america, you can’t relate with us
our people done had enough it’s time to raise it up
everybody saw this coming, it was obvious
so get your knee off our necks and let us rise up

background verse: why, why, why, why (x16)

i got a feelin’ everyday i’m finna risk my life (yeah)
we gotta stand tall, stand high, stand bright (yeah)
i know just how you feeling we gon’ get thru this alright (yeah)
if it gonna take a war, we gon’ stand up, we gon’ fight (yeah)
it’s a struggle in this country ‘cuz of the colour of my skin (yeah)
