ashton francis - give me air lyrics

hook (courtney taylor): give, give me air, pressure is slowly k!lling me, i can’t breathe, pressure is slowly k!lling me, let me breathe

verse: dark depictions of a human being, black body slaughtered on my screen/ blood leaking you can watch it stream, four officers secure the scene if i catch one should i let’em breathe?/ there’s the gap between the world and me, then thеy ask me to accept a plea/ f+ck your policе chief and deputy let that be known/ without warning no+knock warrant enter your home, wrong floor wrong apartment shoot you through the door/ they arrest the whole department, can’t unsee what we saw/ n+ggas is upset, the evil set us back not to be f+cked with the people gon’ bust back/ labeled a suspect, playing for stray cats, rear+naked chokehold squeeze til my life past/ taking my last breath, knee on my d+mn neck, say this the last time we taking no checks + n+ggas is upset

hook: give, give me air, give, give me air

verse: we’ve been served but we’ve been unprotected, underrepresented, pacified i wouldn’t say a sentence/ uninvited couldn’t find an entrance, tenants of a lost tribe we divided at the root/ sought to hide us from our truth, they say assata k!lled a trooper cause cops bare the right to shoot you/ they flex power and abuse, this next hour’s for the youth/ i’ll throw a coward off the roof and tell’em fly without a chute’ stupid, this the no+f+cking+round movement/ yall gon’ show respect to black humans, cut them cheques, pay your debts and send them reparations, this ain’t retribution/ free labor built your institutions, we’ve been lynched, raped and executed/ there’s got to be better but i ain’t begging for it, we bitter cause you benefited off our backs we want it back

hook: give, give me air (give me air, i need air), give, give me air

verse: you can stand your ground cause we ground breaking/ a change bout to come cause i’m done waiting/ by whatever means however necessary, blood+stained pavement brighter than a cherry/ strange fruit hanging blossom every season, the caged bird singing begging for her freedom/ mother’s losing son’s morning through the evening destruction of my body for convenient reason

(courtney taylor): pressure is slowly k!lling me, i can’t breathe, pressure is slowly k!lling me, let me breathe

give me air, give me air
pressure is slowly k!lling me, i can’t breathe
