The Missouri Man (i Can't Breathe) Lyrics - Singles - Marchan Noelle

These times keep repeating sure as seasons change the leaves 

The Missouri man is doing what he can just to be 

These lives keep on changing in vain at the hands of authority 

The Missouri Man is doing what he can just to breathe 

Protests all around the countryside 

When you listen you can hear 

The love, hate, confusion, and anger in the voices broken by the fear 

Silence suffocates - its definition the opposite of action is what I mean 

Violence complicates - it sure won't cure disease 

That's why the Missouri man lost the only chance he had to be 

How are we supposed to react 

When the verdict reads there's no consequence 

For the villain in the story 

I'm beginning to agree there's no justice in this land of plenty 

How many more names will we see 

Scrolling down the headlines on our TV screens 

Mothers lose their babies, children lose their daddies 

We all lose a brother in society 

We can't save the future fighting old battles from the past 

We can't pave the path where we should be 

I'm beginning to agree that this flaw is not so small and I can't breathe
