I Wanna Live
I Wanna Live
It was our final day together. Our hearts were full, but we were tired. Shane had introduced us to several examples of music being used on the streets, and we changed course and wrote a series of protest chants. We plan to use some of them in protest events in the next few months.

VERSE 1
Run, run, to better run
Mothers, fathers, sons and daughters
Run, run, to better run
I am gonna find home
VERSE 2
Breathe, breathe, I wanna breathe
I’ll keep fighting, George Floyd dying
Breathe, breath, I wanna breathe
Ain’t gonna die no more
VERSE 3
Live, live, I wanna live
We’re done hiding, tired of dying
Live, live, I wanna live
Ain’t gonna die no more
