[Verse 1]
Where were my friends
The last time a black man was shot dead?
Where were my friends?
Avoiding the subject, the logic
[Chorus]
Forgiveness is so hard to do
You only really care 'bout the world when it's cool
Forgiveness is so hard to do
You only really care 'bout the world when it's cool
[Verse 2]
Where are my friends?
A protest, saving reputation
Where are my friends?
They're already back on vacation
[Chorus]
Forgiveness is so hard to do
You only really care 'bout the world when it's cool
Forgiveness is so hard to do
You only really care 'bout the world when it's cool
[Bridge]
I need time (I need time)
I need space (I need space)
I know change doesn't happen in a day
Doesn't happen in a day, doesn't happen in a day
I need time (I need time)
I need space (I need space)
I know change doesn't happen in a day
Doesn't happen in a day, doesn't happen in a day
[Chorus]
Forgiveness is so hard to do
You only really care 'bout the world when it's cool
Forgiveness is so hard to do
You only really care 'bout the world when it's cool
[Outro]
Where were my friends
The last time a black man was shot dead?
Where were my friends?
