There are new developments in the death of George Floyd, the unarmed black man in Minneapolis
Who died in police custody. We're hearing from the paramedics who treated him and now the mayor
Says he wants the police officer who pressed his knee to Floyd's neck to be prosecuted
I can't breathe and I can't see why you're taking so much time hating me. I just want to live
Please don't shoot me down down down down down
I just want to live
Please don't shoot me down down down down down
Don't shoot me down
Please don't shoot me down
I'm face down on the floor. The cops pulled me out the car because I was breaking the law
It was only a counterfeit. So why you hitting me for? The cop is looking real familiar. Think
I've seen him before but wait. Only resisting because I'm claustrophobic. I'm not saying I
Won't comply. I just need a moment. My heart is beating real fast and you don't even notice
You see I'm human but this moment feeling like a rodent. Stuck in a trap. Your foot is on my neck
Because I'm black. All of that over a cigarette pack. I'm going black tell my daughter I love her
I see her soon. Stop recording. Push them off. I ain't ready for upper room. Wait.
Tell my girl I need her. Please get her on the phone. Think I hear my mama calling. Yeah I'm in another zone
Yeah something's wrong. Damn I'm feeling all alone. Tell mama I'm coming home
Yeah and still I see no changes. Flip through the pages. We steady
Dying on different stages. Like it's a show to these crackers. I asked my father what happened
He said this life for us. Ever since we came to this place been a fight for us.
They force us here to change manipulated brains. Fast forward to 400 years later. We filled with rage. It's hard
To engage with our brothers whose we don't see our value. But we at war with ourselves. But that's
A different battle. They kill us out of fear. Can't help but shed a tear. Because the execution
Of black people year after year. I pick up my phone and stare at another lynching.
I ask myself what is this. I can't believe we live this. Uh Huey Newton told us Martin died for this. Malcolm Told us its war. Glad I'm alive for this. Damn my people are so amazing. R.I.P. Pac itsTime for
Them changes.
I can't breathe. And I can't see. Why you taking so much time. Hating me. I just
Wanna live. Please don't shoot me down down down down down.
I just wanna live. Please don't shoot me down
Don't shoot me down
Please don't shoot me down
