Identify me
Another black man killed
By a cop
They pull out the gun and tell us to stop
Identify me
as a black man
No matter where I stand
I see my blood drip to the ground I'm  screaming
Help help ! I've done nothing wrong
My black is bleeding through me
identify me
As I'm walking and I'm being followed
By two cops in a car
They turn on their red and blue lights
I'm running for my life
Trying to not think about what's going to happen next
As I turn to look back
I see seven shots go through me
And the sorry thing is they never knew me
Identify me
I'm a young black boy
Walking  on the sidewalk
I wonder if I'll get shot today
I'm scared of being shot at just because I'm black
Identify me
I'm a grown black man
Every time I go in a building
I get looked up and down
The cops
Asking why are you around ?
Identify me
I'm a black school girl
I live in the projects
My so called dad came out the door
He didn't know what he was heading towards
He was surrounded by cops
So he stopped
He put his hands up
But was still shot
Can you identify me
I am the terror flowing
through the 
Every day

air
