Who Will Mourn Our death when we're fighting to stay alive?
Our culture is stolen from us as they slain black lives.
Who Will Mourn Our death as our children walk this earth?
Our mothers and fathers are taken from us from adolescence to birth.
Who Will Mourn Our death as we don't know what it's like to be free.
We are told to forget our pain, while our oppressors mock you and me.
Who Will Mourn Our death if black lives are taken away?
Our lives never mattered to the cops anyway.
Who Will Mourn Our death in this world full of sin?
Our backs are against the wall as the devil in blue kills our kin.
Who Will Mourn Our death as tears are in our eyes.
The ones who will mourn us are black lives.
