Miguel - How Many (Ruff 1) lyrics

[Intro] I can not sleep I can not rest I can not dream I can not stay silent I feel a violence in myself I feel a violence in myself [Verse 1] I'm tired of human lives turned into hashtags and prayer hands I'm tired of watching these murderers get off Probably bearing a law for love [Hook] Innocent brothers and sisters it's time to wake up, wake up, wake up Brothers and sisters it's time to say something, do something, make 'em Mmm I wonder, how many Blacks lives, how many Black lives How many heartbeats turned into flatlines How many Blacks lives, how many Black lives Does it take to wake the change? Does it take to wake the change? Does it take to wake the change? We can't let them die in vain Does it take to wake the change? [Verse 2] I can not wake and be quiet Oh, change does not come for the silent I'm tired of excuses for all the years, in justices I'm tired of all the pain I'm tired of being afraid I'm tired of all the d**h Tired of all I'm gon' say I'm tired of all the blood [?] say a long way [Hook] Brothers and sisters it's time to wake up, wake up, wake up Brothers and sisters it's time to say something, do something, make 'em How many Blacks lives, how many Black lives How many heartbeats turned into flatlines How many Blacks lives, how many Black lives Does it take to wake the change? Does it take to wake the change? Does it take to wake the change? We can't let them die in vain Does it take to wake the change?
