Description: As a songwriter, I try my best to speak my heart. This is my humble attempt to honor the last words of George Floyd. May he rest in peace, and may his horrible death finally bring change to this world. We are suffocating in racism. We all need to breathe an end to that legacy that never seems to fade. Please share if the message of this song rings true to you. #GeorgeFloyd. #ICantBreathe #BlackLivesMatter Some folks have asked that I post the lyrics. Here they are: I CAN'T BREATHE (for George Floyd) If you're going to bend a knee I pray that it's to pray for me And not to kneel upon my neck To steal from me my very breath I can't breathe I can't breathe I can't breathe I can't breathe Though we might have different skin Our hearts all pump red within We must forget the fear we're taught We're more alike than we are not I can't breathe I can't breathe I can't breathe I can't breathe I can’t … Stand and watch in silence Pretend that I can't see The virus all around us Its name is Bigotry Can we finally end the hate In which we suffocate? The more we cry for change The more things stay the same Will we ever see the Light Will we ever make this right? I can't breathe I can't breathe I can't breathe I can't breathe
