I Can't Breathe
Gabriella Wilson
Started a war screaming "Peace" at the same time
All the corruption, injustice, the same crimes
Always a problem if we do or don't fight
And we die, we don't have the same rights
What is a gun to a man that surrenders?
What's it gonna take for someone to defend us?
If we all agree that we're equal as people
Then why can't we see what is evil?
I can't breathe
You're taking my life from me
I can't breathe
Will anyone fight for me?
Oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh
How do we cope when we don't love each other?
Where is the hope and the empathy?
How do we judge off the color?
The structure was made to make us the enemy
Prayin' for change 'cause the pain makes you tender
All of the names you refuse to remember
Were somebody's brother or friend
Son to a mother that's crying, sayin'
I can't breathe
You're taking my life from me
I can' breathe
Will anyone fight for me?
Oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh
Will anyone fight for me?
Oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh (for me)
Trying times all the time
Destruction of minds, bodies, and human rights
Stripped of bloodlines, whipped and confined
This is the American pride
It's justifying a genocide
Romanticizing the theft and bloodshed
That made America the land of the free
To take a black life, land of the free
To bring a gun to a peaceful fight for civil rights
You are desensitized to pulling triggers on innocent lives
Because that's how we got here in the first place
These wounds sink deeper than the bullet
Your entitled hands could ever reach
Generations and generations of pain, fear, and anxiety
Equality is walking without intuition
Saying the protector and the killer is wearing the same uniform
The revolution is not televised
Media perception is forced down the throats of closed minds
So it's lies in the headlines
And generations of supremacy resulting in your ignorant, privileged eyes
We breathe the same and we bleed the same
But still, we don't see the same
Be thankful we are God-fearing
Because we do not seek revenge
We seek justice, we are past fear
We are fed up eating your shit
Because you think your so-called "black friend"
Validates your wokeness and erases your racism
That kind of uncomfortable conversation is too hard
For your trust-fund pockets to swallow
To swallow the strange fruit hanging from my family tree
Because of your audacity
To say all men are created equal in the eyes of God
But disparage a man based on the color of his skin
Do not say you do not see color
When you see us, see us
We can't breathe
Oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh
Started a war screaming "Peace" at the same time
Ha iniziato una guerra gridando "Pace" allo stesso tempo
All the corruption, injustice, the same crimes
Tutta la corruzione, l'ingiustizia, gli stessi crimini
Always a problem if we do or don't fight
Sempre un problema se combattiamo o no
And we die, we don't have the same rights
E noi moriamo, non abbiamo gli stessi diritti
What is a gun to a man that surrenders?
Che cos'è una pistola per un uomo che si arrende?
What's it gonna take for someone to defend us?
Cosa ci vorrà perché qualcuno ci difenda?
If we all agree that we're equal as people
Se tutti concordiamo che siamo uguali come persone
Then why can't we see what is evil?
Allora perché non possiamo vedere cosa è il male?
I can't breathe
Non riesco a respirare
You're taking my life from me
Mi stai togliendo la vita
I can't breathe
Non riesco a respirare
Will anyone fight for me?
Qualcuno combatterà per me?
Oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh
How do we cope when we don't love each other?
Come facciamo a farcela quando non ci amiamo l'un l'altro?
Where is the hope and the empathy?
Dove è la speranza e l'empatia?
How do we judge off the color?
Come giudichiamo in base al colore?
The structure was made to make us the enemy
La struttura è stata creata per farci diventare nemici
Prayin' for change 'cause the pain makes you tender
Pregando per un cambiamento perché il dolore ti rende sensibile
All of the names you refuse to remember
Tutti i nomi che rifiuti di ricordare
Were somebody's brother or friend
Erano il fratello o l'amico di qualcuno
Son to a mother that's crying, sayin'
Figlio di una madre che piange, dicendo
I can't breathe
Non riesco a respirare
You're taking my life from me
Mi stai togliendo la vita
I can' breathe
Non riesco a respirare
Will anyone fight for me?
Qualcuno combatterà per me?
Oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh
Will anyone fight for me?
Qualcuno combatterà per me?
Oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh (for me)
Oh, oh, oh (per me)
Trying times all the time
Tempi difficili tutto il tempo
Destruction of minds, bodies, and human rights
Distruzione di menti, corpi e diritti umani
Stripped of bloodlines, whipped and confined
Privati delle linee di sangue, frustati e confinati
This is the American pride
Questo è l'orgoglio americano
It's justifying a genocide
È giustificare un genocidio
Romanticizing the theft and bloodshed
Romanticizzare il furto e il massacro
That made America the land of the free
Che ha reso l'America la terra dei liberi
To take a black life, land of the free
Per prendere una vita nera, terra dei liberi
To bring a gun to a peaceful fight for civil rights
Per portare una pistola a una lotta pacifica per i diritti civili
You are desensitized to pulling triggers on innocent lives
Sei desensibilizzato a premere grilletti su vite innocenti
Because that's how we got here in the first place
Perché è così che siamo arrivati qui in primo luogo
These wounds sink deeper than the bullet
Queste ferite affondano più profondamente del proiettile
Your entitled hands could ever reach
Le tue mani privilegiate potrebbero mai raggiungere
Generations and generations of pain, fear, and anxiety
Generazioni e generazioni di dolore, paura e ansia
Equality is walking without intuition
L'uguaglianza è camminare senza intuizione
Saying the protector and the killer is wearing the same uniform
Dire che il protettore e l'assassino indossano la stessa divisa
The revolution is not televised
La rivoluzione non è televisiva
Media perception is forced down the throats of closed minds
La percezione dei media è forzata nelle gole delle menti chiuse
So it's lies in the headlines
Quindi sono bugie nei titoli
And generations of supremacy resulting in your ignorant, privileged eyes
E generazioni di supremazia che risultano nei tuoi occhi ignoranti e privilegiati
We breathe the same and we bleed the same
Respiriamo lo stesso e sanguiniamo lo stesso
But still, we don't see the same
Ma ancora, non vediamo lo stesso
Be thankful we are God-fearing
Siate grati che temiamo Dio
Because we do not seek revenge
Perché non cerchiamo vendetta
We seek justice, we are past fear
Cerchiamo giustizia, siamo oltre la paura
We are fed up eating your shit
Siamo stufi di mangiare la tua merda
Because you think your so-called "black friend"
Perché pensi che il tuo cosiddetto "amico nero"
Validates your wokeness and erases your racism
Validi la tua consapevolezza e cancelli il tuo razzismo
That kind of uncomfortable conversation is too hard
Quel tipo di conversazione scomoda è troppo dura
For your trust-fund pockets to swallow
Per le tue tasche fiduciarie da ingoiare
To swallow the strange fruit hanging from my family tree
Per ingoiare il frutto strano appeso al mio albero genealogico
Because of your audacity
A causa della tua audacia
To say all men are created equal in the eyes of God
Di dire che tutti gli uomini sono creati uguali agli occhi di Dio
But disparage a man based on the color of his skin
Ma denigrare un uomo in base al colore della sua pelle
Do not say you do not see color
Non dire che non vedi il colore
When you see us, see us
Quando ci vedi, vedici
We can't breathe
Non possiamo respirare

Se todos concordamos que somos iguais como pessoas
Then why can't we see what is evil?
Então por que não podemos ver o que é mal?

Eram irmão ou amigo de alguém

Saying the protector and the killer is wearing the same uniform
Sagen, dass der Beschützer und der Mörder die gleiche Uniform tragen
The revolution is not televised
Die Revolution wird nicht im Fernsehen übertragen
Media perception is forced down the throats of closed minds
Medienwahrnehmung wird den geschlossenen Köpfen aufgezwungen
So it's lies in the headlines
Also sind es Lügen in den Schlagzeilen
And generations of supremacy resulting in your ignorant, privileged eyes
Und Generationen von Überlegenheit, die in deinen ignoranten, privilegierten Augen resultieren
We breathe the same and we bleed the same
Wir atmen das Gleiche und wir bluten das Gleiche
But still, we don't see the same
Aber trotzdem sehen wir nicht das Gleiche
Be thankful we are God-fearing
Sei dankbar, dass wir Gott fürchten
Because we do not seek revenge
Denn wir suchen keine Rache
We seek justice, we are past fear
Wir suchen Gerechtigkeit, wir haben die Angst überwunden
We are fed up eating your shit
Wir haben genug davon, deine Scheiße zu fressen
Because you think your so-called "black friend"
Weil du denkst, dein sogenannter „schwarzer Freund“
Validates your wokeness and erases your racism
Validiert deine Wachheit und löscht deinen Rassismus
That kind of uncomfortable conversation is too hard
Diese Art von unangenehmem Gespräch ist zu hart
For your trust-fund pockets to swallow
Für deine Trust-Fund-Taschen zu schlucken
To swallow the strange fruit hanging from my family tree
Um die seltsame Frucht zu schlucken, die von meinem Familienbaum hängt
Because of your audacity
Wegen deiner Dreistigkeit
To say all men are created equal in the eyes of God
Zu sagen, alle Menschen sind in den Augen Gottes gleich geschaffen
But disparage a man based on the color of his skin
Aber einen Mann aufgrund der Farbe seiner Haut herabsetzen
Do not say you do not see color
Sag nicht, du siehst keine Farbe
When you see us, see us
Wenn du uns siehst, sieh uns
We can't breathe
Wir können nicht atmen
Oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh
