about

All proceeds from this song will go to New City Kids in Jersey City, NJ.
This track is written for George Floyd and all of the ones we lost to senseless police brutality.

lyrics

Imprison them for what they did
There's no way that they are innocent
I seen the clip 8 minutes and 46 seconds of them killing him
A man lost his life and did they think twice about what he left behind
A family in need, his children to teach
Who are they to do this?

We hit the streets to speak our peace, but are they really listening
We march and fight for what isn right, but do they really give a shit?
A system that's set to keep us in debt, and why should he pay the price?
A man lost his life and for him we fight cause this can not keep happening

And now we sing for our boy, Floyd.
