i matter

i can't breathe

let me live

there's more to my life than this

when will my life be considered equal

i can't run

i can't sleep

why can't i walk down the street

everyday it feels like there's another sequel

my life matters

why do you see a threat

my life matters

you judge me and we never met

so much inequality

racism and police brutality

i matter

my life matters

i'm invisible unless there's someone to cast the blame on

not seen for my value

but simply one you can blame for

all of the ills of society

to shoulder the weight of the community

guilty til proven innocent

the price of proof may be my death

where's the justice

we demand justice

my life matters

why do you see a threat

my life matters

you judge me and we never met

so much inequality

racism and police brutality

i matter

my life matters

you matter

your life matters

we matter

our lives matter

i matter

my life matters

i matter

my life matters
