GAmerica's on fire
There's protests in the street
C9Her conscience has been looted
And her soul is under?siege
AmAnother?mother's crying,C9 as ?history repeats
I can't breatGhe
GGod damn those?8 long minutes
Lying face down in cuffs on the ground
C9Bystanders â?pleaded â?for â?mercy
As one, copâ?shoved a kid â?in the crowd
AmWhen did a judge and a jury
C9Become a badge and a knee on these streeGts?
C9Stay alive, Gstay alive
AmShine a light, Gstay alive
Em7Use your voice and Gyou remember C9me
American reckonGing
GI'll never know what it's like
To walk a mile in his shoes
C9And I'll never have to have the talk
So it don't happen to you
AmThree little words written 'cross the chest
C9Of a twelve year old who hasn't lived life yet
GAm I next? Am I next?
C9Stay alive, Gstay alive
AmShine a light, Gstay alive
Em7Use your voice and Gyou remember C9me
American reckonGing

GIs this a moment or movement?
Is this the tide or a flood?
C9Is our American reckoning?
Our story written in blood
Or in lAmove
Or in peC9ace
C9Stay alive, Gstay alive
AmShine a light, Gstay alive
Em7Use your voice and Gyou remember C9me
American reckonGing
C9Stay alive, Gstay alive
AmShine a light, Gstay alive
Em7Use your voice and Gyou remember C9me
American reckonGing
In our American reckoning
