[Intro] | G Gsus4 | 4x [Verse 1] America’s on fire There’s protests in the street Her conscience has been looted And her soul is under siege Another mother’s crying As history repeats I can’t breathe [Instrumental] | G Gsus4 | 3x [Verse 2] God damn those 8 long minutes Lying face down in cuffs on the ground Bystanders pleaded for mercy As one Cop shoved a kid in the crowd When did a judge and a jury Become a badge and a knee On these streets? [Chorus] Stay alive stay alive Shine a light stay alive Use your voice and you remember me American reckoning [Verse 3] I’ll never know what it’s like To walk a mile in his shoes And I’ll never have to have the talk So it don’t happen to you Three little words written ’cross the chest Of a twelve year old who hasn’t lived life yet "Am I next? Am I next?" [Chorus] Stay alive stay alive Shine a light stay alive Use your voice and you remember me American reckoning [Instrumental Break] | | | 2x | | | | G Gsus4 | 2x [Bridge] Is this a moment or movement? Is this the tide or a flood? Is our American reckoning? Our story written in blood Or in love Or in peace [Instrumental] | G Gsus4 | 4x [Chorus] Stay alive stay alive Shine a light stay alive Use your voice and you remember me Stay alive stay alive Shine a light stay alive Use your voice and you remember me American reckoning In our American reckoning
