[Intro]
Oh I…
Oh I…
Heroes (heroes)
Mama said them heroes (heroes)
[Verse 1]
I never thought a devil would dress in blue
I never thought my fate would rest with you
I was nervous when I’m driving, obsessed with you
Who guessed the devil would send heroes?
[Verse 2]
I never thought a devil would dress in blue
I never thought my fate would rest with you
Always nervous when I’m driving, obsessed with you
Who guessed the devil would send heroes?
To collect his due
[Verse 3]
I can’t breathe, no resistance from me
Don’t shoot, don’t shoot, don’t shoot me please
He said it’s too late for you, oh, oh
Son, it’s too late for you, oh
‘Cause you was born this way
[Break]
He said it’s too late for you, oh, oh
Son, it’s too late for you, oh
‘Cause you was born this way
He said it’s too late for you, oh, oh
Son, it’s too late for you, oh
‘Cause you was born this way
[Verse 4]
Rest in peace, Breonna Taylor
Mr. Floyd, sleep well Philando Castile
They will hear our voice
Rest easy young Treyvon, Freddie Gray
Movement leaders, y'all became one
And they will know your name
[Verse 5]
Rest in power Eric Garner, oh Tamir
Live in a place you can play all day
No death to fear
They will know your name
Know your name
They will know your name
Know your name
[Outro]
‘Cause you was born this way
‘Cause you was born this way
