Lyrics

Keepin the world far out with walls around
Just stop resisting and you'll be fine
We've heard you say this a million times
I wanna live my life in harmony
The way the Holy Land was meant to be
Have you been blue-blinded by the media?
Chipping away at my hurriyah
With all that's twisted in this crazy world
I want you to know: my life matters

I'll set the clouds on fire 'cause it's how I feel
I want the world to know that my pain is real
It's time to make it right, It's time to join the fight
Cause I can't breathe, just let me be!
With all that's twisted in this crazy world
I want you to know: my life matters!

Just keep it cool and calm, it's what we're told to do
Hands in the air now and you'll be fine
You've only done this a million times
Just know I'm proud, in love with my own skin
That's all you see, your fear is running you thin
You say: I'm only here to protect and serve
Then why do I feel like I'm less than my worth?
With all that's twisted in this crazy world
I want you to know: my life matters

I'll set the clouds on fire 'cause it's how I feel
I want the world to know that my pain is real
It's time to make it right, It's time to join the fight
Cause I can't breathe, just let me be!
With all that's twisted in this crazy world
I want you to know: my life matters!

Only got one and it'll pass us by
Time's running out and then we wonder why
Looking at a mirror, I'll tell you what I see
The world gets better when I start with me

I'll set the clouds on fire 'cause it's how I feel
I want the world to know that my pain is real
It's time to make it right, It's time to join the fight
Cause I can't breathe, just let me be!
With all that's twisted in this crazy world
I want you to know: my life matters!
