Pray Momma Don't Cry

[Chorus: Bilal]

Pray for me defend these streets

Murder was the case shot by police

Last word he said was I can’t breathe

Rest in peace can rest in peace

Momma she gon’ cry for me

Folks gon’ yell, deep in these streets

Sound of pain, ain’t no peace

Just know when you hear my people weep

It’s the sound of love

[Verse 1: Rapsody]

Gun to your back ‘cause you black kids in the whip

Seven to his back different than when we ride for Kaepernick

At seventeen, a son dies, murder was the case

Time flies still we never can forget the face

It's mourning nights knowin' Breonna ain’t gettin' another morning

Watchin’ black death, our murder shouldn’t be normal

Mercy mercy what a world our black children are born into

Black is king we pray that scars will heal, still a noose

Wounds out the womb, targets on our back like birth marks are tombs

And now these all black for the funerals

Following families at the funeral

Carried by six but we loved by the universe

Mercy mercy God shine through my soul

Bloodstained street bodies glitter and gold

Mercy mercy God shine through my soul

Bloodstained street bodies glitter and gold, kings

[Chorus: Bilal]

Pray for me defend these streets

Murder was the case shot by police

Last word he said was I can’t breathe

Rest in peace can rest in peace

Momma she gon’ cry for me

Folks gon’ yell, deep in these streets

The sound of pain, ain’t no peace

Just know when you hear my people weep

It’s the sound of love

[Verse 2: Rapsody]

Pray for me, death in these streets

Red blood, these slugs, murder police

I know you fear my black is king

Please hug my momma tell her she's my queen

And lift her should I not come home

Tell my daddy I held my own

Intimidated by my black my throne

They pulled that chrome under the black domes (Bow)

Wounds out the womb, targets on our back like birth marks are tombs

And now these all black for the funerals

Following families at the funeral

Carried by six but we loved by the universe

Mercy mercy God shine through my soul

Bloodstained streets bodies glitter and gold

Mercy mercy God shine through my soul

Bloodstained streets bodies glitter and gold, kings

[Chorus: Bilal]

Pray for me defend these streets

Murder was a case shot by police

Last word he said was I can’t breathe

Rest in peace can rest in peace

Momma she gon’ cry for me

Folks gon’ yell, deep in these streets

Sound of pain, ain’t no peace

Just know when you hear my people weep

It’s the sound of love

It’s the sound of love

It’s the sound of love
