Thi'sl - What Are We Fighting For lyrics

[Intro] What are we fighting for? What are we fighting for? I promise to love you I promise [Verse 1] What up King? Can I talk to you for a minute? Give me a couple seconds and I'm finished I promise it won't even be that deep I just got a couple things I need to speak I need a chance to apologize For all the days I wanted to see you die When I was young I didn't realize That there's no difference between you and I See where I'm from them boys wear red and ya'll wear blue And I was taught that you'll k** me so I k**ed you There was no other way in my eyes But to leave your mama traumatized It's either that or see my brother die It's either you or watch my mother cry See where we from you know that's how we ride Preserve my life if everybody die It hurt my heart to hear the words fly King I only want to see you fly But instead you behind bars Because we slaves to the fancy cars It's like we hop right off that slave ship To go and k** the ones we were in chains with Now a chain around my neck supposed to feel better? I guess that make me lame I want to live better? I hope you know that these are more than lyrics King you were made in God's image I know that this not what you used to hearing I hope it touch your heart and touch your spirit I hate to watch the news everyday I know that I'm about to see your face We lose the one shot and we lose the shooter Mama can't say nothing but Jesus hallelujah Our women and our children need us King I know you think you born to fail but you the dream Martin had when he was letting freedom reign It's time for you to show the world what you can bring I know you think it's bad but you the dream Martin had when he was letting freedom reign You were made in the image of the King It's time for us to show the world what we can bring [Outro] What are we fighting for? All this damage done isn't quite enough for us? [?] I promise to love you again I promise (3x)
