Lyrics

Don't

Don't want to think about Sandra Bland

And how bad apples get off with a slap on the hand

I just turned older than she'll ever be

If I was next how long would you protest for me?

For me, for me, for me

For me

Don't want to think about having kids

Cause how the fuck would I even explain it to them

I see a tiny me but with good hair

Locks bloody on the street oh god I'm scared

So scared, so scared, I'm so scared

So scared

La da da da da da da

La da da da da da da

La da da da da da da

Don't want to think about Elijah McClain

Or how my little brother shares the same face and name

Don't want to think about the pit in my chest

Worried it could be him, not me, that's next

Don't want to think about it

But I have to think about it

Don't want to think
