I Can't Breathe

He's become his death
The spark of the riots
That's the way he's blessed
To stay alive
It never leads to an end
It's never getting quiet
If it's unfair, my friend
Make up your mind

It's getting dark in New York City
It's getting dark in New York City
It's getting dark in New York City
I need to catch my breath

You know this world of hate
You know this stubborn light
They're in the prayers you pray late at night
We're only halfway down
Who dares to take a breath?
Some fairness might be found
From ashes of his death

It's getting dark in New York City
It's getting dark in New York City
It's getting dark in New York City
I need to catch my breath

Get away. For what?
Every time you see me, you want to mess with me
I'm tired of it. It stops today. Why would you...?
Everyone standing here will tell you I didn't do nothing
I did not sell anything
Because every time you see me, you want to harass me
You want to stop me selling cigarettes
I'm minding my business, officer
I'm minding my business
Please just leave me alone
I told you the last time, please just leave me alone
Please. Please. Don't touch me. Do not touch me
I can't breathe
I can't breathe
I can't breathe
I can't breathe
I can't breathe
I can't breathe
I can't breathe
I can't breathe
I can't breathe
