about

With so many people coming together to support the #blacklivesmatter movement, I've felt super emotional but super hopeful for a brighter, more equal future.

The strength and positivity in so many standing together for something that I know has not only deeply affected my life but my friends, family and millions across the globe.

So I'd like to join you in peaceful protest.

Thank you for listening.

lyrics

And it all came crumbling down.
Oh, I saw how it really is now.
Can't go on with my eyes wide shut,
Never been the type to play exactly by the book.

I stayed silent fearing your response,
but there's no denying, there's too much to be done.

If I can breathe,
I can speak,
For the ones,
Denied their freedom,
Denied a reason,
Be the change,
Don't just dream it.

I've been praying for a savior, coz i'm treated different to my neighbour.
Oh, I won't forget the names of,
those who couldn't get away...

If I can breathe,
I can speak,
For the ones,
Denied their freedom,
Denied a reason,
Be the change,
Define your meaning.

Can't change the world in a day,
Can't change the colour of my face,
I was born this way,
I was born to be brave.

If I can breathe,
I can speak,
For the ones,
Denied their freedom,
Denied a reason,
Be the change,
Plant the seeds in.

Wish it was a make believe story,
The colour of your skin shouldn't be a worry,
But the pain is so real and I'm sorry.
