Angels Cry Lyrics

Another body slain in the street

And we been needing change needing peace

We dying we can't take it no further

Heard the angels cry and they scream murder, murder

Heard the angels cry and they scream murder, murder

Know you hear them angels crying

Tired of seeing my brothers die and mamas cry

R.I.P. George Floyd when I seen that video I cried

I can do everything right but police can still take my life

Officers killin us can't do anything we helpless

Unarmed but they still shooting us we defenseless

If you ain't black you won't feel the pain, all these killings insane

I pray to God the deaths won't ever be in vain cause America gotta change

It's hard being black when your life ain't valued

If all lives matter why I gotta beg for mines

Yesterday was George Floyd today could be me, tomorrow could be you

We screaming Black Lives Matter, but they don't wanna see a black man prosper

Don't wanna see us succeed tried to keep us dumb

Didn't want us to learn how to read, but we gon overcome that's a guarantee

Another body slain in the street

And we been needing change needing peace

We dying we can't take it no further

Heard the angels cry and they scream murder, murder

Heard the angels cry and they scream murder, murder

Know you hear them angels crying

United we stand together we fall, but our leader he tryna divide us all

Be brave stay smart and stand tall

We gon build a bridge dig a tunnel if they build a wall

We all the same people we all bleed red

But damn why so many people silent when my people dead

Officer got a gun I ain't got shit but he filled me with lead

Emptied six bullets in me cause he was fucking scared

2020 This shit still going on I thought that was dead

Nah I'm the one dead, officer a hero is what some said

This is America land of the free, we gon hit the streets march for equality

For the people saying all lives matter, shit I don't see none of your people dying

Probably don't even fear for your life while driving

Police consider driving while black a crime

That's why we stay strapped from time to time

Another body slain in the street

And we been needing change needing peace

We dying we can't take it no further

Heard the angels cry and they scream murder, murder

Heard the angels cry and they scream murder, murder

Know you hear them angels crying

Like M.L.K. I got the same dream, one day we'll all be equal be free

Ain't promoting violence but if you gon shoot me regardless

Shit, I'd rather have my glock on me for protection, cause you mother fuckers heartless

Mr Bump acts like he doesn't have a clue, no justice no peace fuck the police

Black is excellence never forget, America was built on our blood and sweat

Pain and sacrifice the price was our life

R.I.P. Mike Brown another young black kid gone too soon

August 9th 2014, 21 days before my 20th birthday

Will never forget hands up don't shoot

I do it for Michael Brown I do it for Trayvon Martin

I do it for the niggas on the yard locked up wrongfully convicted innocent of any crime

Guilty for the color of their skin

If you don't support black lives matter...FUCK YOU

Another body slain in the street

And we been needing change needing peace

We dying we can't take it no further

Heard the angels cry and they scream murder, murder

Heard the angels cry and they scream murder, murder

Know you hear them angels crying
