Lyrics I Can't Breathe - Hannah Eggen

I can't breathe
Mountain tops and bus stops echo
He can't breathe
Floyd is lying on the concrete
We can't breathe
Seems like these videos stay on repeat
Memories of the gentle folks on these streets

Tears they hurt my eyes, the gas is burning
But my t-shirt says that Sandra Bland was here
Then disappeared
Who is to blame?
Them sons of Cain

Headline, headline, read all about it
They hunted down Ahmaud like a savage
The murder was so natural, they recorded it
Everybody thinking they next

Headline headline read all about it
Breonna Taylor, eight times, shot down
We ain't even safe in our own home
Everybody thinking they next

She can't breathe (she can't breathe)
Mountain tops and bus stops echo
He can't breathe (he can't breathe)
Face down laying in the dirt
We can't breathe (we can't breathe)
Candle wax all melting on the concrete
Memories of the gentlemen in these streets

Tears they hurt my eyes, the gas is burning
But my t-shirt says that Garner was just here
Then disappeared
Who is to blame?
Them sons of Cain

Hey now, hey now, love is the answer
But tell me why the hate taking over
Gateway city to the West
With everybody thinking they next

Many men, many men, fall like the young Brown
And pleading self-defense is the new sound
Gateway city to the West
With everybody thinking they next

Like the wild, wild West
Taken to the Mid-West
Toy gun in his hand
He went from playing to the real thing
BANG! BANG!
Ferguson (she can't breathe)
I seen the whole world turn into Ferguson (he can't breathe)
Overnight theres city lights in Ferguson (he can't breathe)

Candle wax all melting on the concrete
Cocktails being passed, but no one's happy
Tears they hurt my eyes, the gas is burning
But my T-shirt says that little Rice was here
Then disappeared
Who is to blame?
Them sons of Cain
