dear america - sammie lyrics
[verse 1]
i’mma put this hoodie on, don’t shoot me
no, don’t shoot me
they say a change goin’ come
i guess i’ll wait
cause all i see is bang bang shoot ’em up
and it’s the cops that’s bangin’ and they k!llin’ us
though in god we trust, yeah
i’m just a young black man tryna’ to find my way
[pre-hook]
but they made it so hard for us
yeah it’s hard, but it’s the land of the free
swear they made it so hard for us
but obama looks just like me
[hook]
what’s so wrong with my skin, that i’m in?
that i’m in
nothing’s wrong with my skin, that i’m in
that i’m in
dear america (why, why, why)
dear america (why, why, why)
dear america
[verse 2]
now i might ride nice cars, but don’t shoot me
please, don’t shoot me
i mean, i work all day, i’m just like you
and i may rock chains, but don’t slave me
no, don’t slave me
you ain’t better than me
i ain’t better than you
[pre-hook]
but they made it so hard for us
yeah it’s hard, but it’s the land of the free
swear they made it so hard for us
but obama looks just like me
[hook]
but what’s so wrong with my skin, that i’m in?
that i’m in
nothing’s wrong with my skin, that i’m in
that i’m in
oh, dear america, (why, why, why) oh
dear america, (why, why, why) oh yeah

don’t hold your head down, unless you’re praying
and when you say amen, look up to the sky
hold your head up high, know that you amazing
i need you to be strong, you’re never alone
just keep marching on, please hear what i’m saying
