Akie Bermiss - Mr. Governor lyrics

Akie: They're k**ing me tonight They are k**ing me tonight They are murdering, murdering Murdering me tonight Soul Khan: We went from voltage to dosage like that's humane As the hourgla** pa**es its last few grains We still add new names to d**h row that echo From holman to folsom, how can you claim That we're staying on the high ground When we take another life out Without so much as raising up an eyebrow Well maybe some of us But meanwhile the rest of y'all chill as we restrain a mother's child down Strapped but disarmed, they're jabbing his arms with catheters His family's hearts are cracking apart as activists Protest with candles and signs hoping this man will survive Unless the capital calls for the miraculous This ain't the kind of thing you need to stop and ask oprah It's power that we can't allow atop a man's shoulder It's about time I cried out and brought my hands closer Remembering the final words of shaka sankofa Hook:(Akie Bermiss) They're k**ing me tonight They are k**ing me tonight They are murdering, murdering Murdering me tonight Mr. governor, we've discovered a Body of evidence don't cover us In that black mask and make us Make us turn out the light Soul Khan Now even if they're guilty beyond reasonable doubt It ain't like k**ing em'll ever even this sh** out If you'd fallen where they've fallen, you might see another route Instead of something more than murder when that needle's coming out We've seen too many moments that are worth second looks The first breath he took, the first step he took A grave is a grave and a d**h is a d**h But y'all forget about it as soon they're first getting booked See, i'm just stating the past ethics and same words From the family of matt shephard and james byrd I can't imagine that sad sentence that they heard They showed a kinda mercy to k**ers they ain't Earned Wrongly accused or proven and shut cases You wanna execute ‘em, remove me from your playlist Their your neighbors, lord save us Nah, f** it you ain't even try to save troy davis Hook: They're k**ing me tonight They are k**ing me tonight They are murdering, murdering Murdering me tonight Mr. governor, we've discovered a Body of evidence don't cover us In that black mask and make us Make us turn out the light
