[00:35.21]I can't breathe
[00:45.20]God d*mn those 8 long minutes
[00:48.88]Lying face down in cuffs on the ground
[00:54.07]Bystanders pleaded for mercy
[00:57.42]As one cop shoved a kid in the crowd
[01:02.87]When did a judge and a jury
[01:07.20]Become a badge and a knee
[01:10.61]On these streets

Bon Jovi - American Reckoning
America's on fire
There's protests in the street
Her conscience has been looted
And her soul is under siege
Another mother's crying as history repeats
I can't breathe
God d*mn those 8 long minutes
Lying face down in cuffs on the ground
Bystanders pleaded for mercy
As one cop shoved a kid in the crowd
When did a judge and a jury
Become a badge and a knee
On these streets
Stay alive stay alive
Shine a light stay alive
Use your voice and you remember me
American reckoning
I'll never know what it's like
To walk a mile in his shoes
And I'll never have to have the talk
So it don't happen to you
Three little words written 'cross the chest
Of a twelve year old who hasn't lived life yet
Am I next Am I next
Stay alive stay alive
Shine a light stay alive
Use your voice and you remember me
American reckoning
Is this a moment or movement
Is this the tide or a flood
Is our American reckoning
Our story written in blood
Or in love
Or in peace
Stay alive stay alive
Shine a light stay alive
Use your voice and you remember me
Stay alive stay alive
Shine a light stay alive
Use your voice and you remember me

In our American reckoning
America's on fire

Bystanders pleaded for mercy
As one cop shoved a kid in the crowd
When did a judge and a jury
