[John King]
Rose up early this morning
To the sounds of crying
Another mother shedding her tears
So many sons lost in the slaughter
They're running in the streets like water
Could it be that nobody cares?
[Adaeze]
Each day, a nightmare, so we stay woke
Give us welfare, but who the hell cares if we stay broke?
Yeah, [?] toe tags we can't tiptoe
Another hashtag for my kinfolk, another flame we can't rekindle
[John King]
How many more, Jah
Must carry this load?
How many more, Jah
Before we trot down Zion road?
[Adaeze]
I try to ask black lives matter but to who though?
Pseudo-solutions, political pollution
Backward and not evolution
Choking from the [?] of all this racial convolution
They still gon' execute even with perfect elocution
We gotta find a power to make the lemonade
Its gonna taste a little sour
This melanin is magic, and they can't have it
We reeling from the havoc, love black
Can we love that? Can we love that?
[John King]
Heavenly father, won't you hear my plea?
Send a helping hand for this country
In man, there's no solution
(How must we carry this load?)
I begging for the children's future
Oh Jah, cops got them by the collar
How can we stop this mind pollution?
[Adaeze]
We gotta clean up, we gotta clean up
We gotta team up, black fists in the air
Like we about to beam up
[?] not making sense, but they have monetized it
A lot of merchandise, [?] prisons privatized it
[John King]
Too many big shots with too much connections
Too many loopholes in Babylon system
Oh Jah, how can your children cope?
How many more, Jah
(How? How many more?)
Must carry this load?
(How? How many more?)
How many more, Jah
(How? How many more?)
Before we trot down Zion road?
(How? How many more?)
[Chorus]
Sing woi-oh, woi-oh, woi-oh, woi-oh, woi-oh, woi-oh, woi-oh
Sing woi-oh, woi-oh, woi-oh, woi-oh, woi-oh, woi-oh, woi-oh
[John King]
How many more? How many more?
Sing woi-oh, woi-oh, woi-oh, woi-oh, woi-oh, woi-oh, woi-oh
How many more? How many more?
