Something’s Gotta Give

Lyrics

[Intro] I can't breathe, I can't breathe [Verse 1] Feet hurt from all of this marching (I can't breathe) My voice tired from all of the shouting and arguing We need answers to all our questions (I can't breathe) But can anybody tell me why, this system ain't for me? Fist bruised from all of the fighting (I can't breathe) My heart aches from all of the silence, while we're dying You see the nation's divided (I can't breathe) Oh if we can't have no justice, why would you ask for peace? [Chorus] Something's gotta give They tried to say they're threatened When I just wanna live Oh, oh, oh Something's gotta give (Something's gotta give) I know the Lord is watching this But it's getting hard to forgive [Verse 2] And every morning when I wake up (Wake up) Wish I could change up everything Like all the headlines in the paper (Paper) They never tell you everything I made a wish on a star To take us out of the dark Don't know how much, we can take, before it's over [Chorus] Something's gotta give They tried to say they're threatened When I just wanna live Yeah, yeah, yeah Something's gotta give I know the Lord is watching this (He's watching this) Give me a heart to forgive (Give me a heart to forgive) Give me a heart to forgive (Give me a heart to forgive) Give me a heart (Give me a heart to forgive) [Outro] Yeah Oh, oh, oh, oh
