Ro Morikawa - Left/Sinister Lyrics

(The family of a Kentucky woman shot and killed by police is demanding answers)
Say her name
(Breonna Taylor's family claiming officers blindly fired more than 20 shots)
(Today we're going to talk about "Left")
That's not right
(Because in Latin, "Left" means "Sinister")
That's what they are
It's not right, they swing left
My whole heart's in my left chest
My best is left, my left is best
My guest just left, I guess I'm left
With thoughts that sound so left to me, yeah
They're not right, I swing left
My whole heart's in my left chest
My best is left, my left is best
My guest just left, I guess I'm left
With thoughts that sound so left to me
I shoot left, it ain't right
They get shot on the left side
I didn't think we meant nothing to you
The green book on your black desk means nothing to you
Ain't nothing to me
But some white paint on a white canvas, can't see
What the hell does it mean?
Matthew 5:43
(3 shots, and Arbery died)
(Doesn't mean that we're free I know)
Doesn't mean that we're free
I know that black men bleed and di-gress
We ain't get the memo, we just get the test
We ain't get the memo, we just get arrested
やってない、でも they gon' kill our best
It's our life, can we live without a vest
And they get laid off but we get to lay to rest
Who knows what paid off when we cannot pay the rest
I can't watch PBS when Pb's in our chest
I can't watch PBS when Pb's in our
(Lead)
(There he goes right there)
(Okay what's he doing?)
(Running down the street)
(26 year old Breonna Taylor said she loved helping others)
That sounds so left to me
(As an EMT on the front lines of Louisville, KY, but no one could have saved her)
(And if someone is unable to use either hand, they're called)
(Ahmaud Arbery, Breonna Taylor)
That sounds so left to me
I hate it when they say it's all good
In reality it's all クソ (クソ)
I hate it when they say it's all love
In reality it's all ウソ (ウソ、ウソyah)
Yeah, it was all a facade (facade)
They mess up but they never fess up
No Sir, I won't call you Massah
If I call you Massah
You gon' have to die first
Look
Sorry for the crimes I commit
I never really cared for the signs, too remiss
To even give a thought for the minds that exist
In a parallel plane to my line of existence
I'm minding my business (Minding my business)
つまり罪ねえが my crime is existence
Man I just really need to stay alive for next Christmas
Please
(I saw my son come in the world)
It was all a facade (Facade)
(And seeing him leave the world, is not something that I want to see ever)
It was all a facade (Facade)
That sounds so left to me
It was all a facade (Facade)
My whole heart's in my left chest
I guess I'm left
With thoughts that sound so left to me
(Friday would've been Ahmaud Arbery's 26th birthday)
(His father says there would've been a celebration)
(And afterward, his son would've stepped out the door, and run)
(Taylor's family said she was on the front lines)
(Fighting the Coronavirus at the time of her death)
(They were concerned about her getting sick, not shot)
(Just let us be)
That sounds so left to me
Black Man ain't left in peace
Black Man just rest in peace
Black Men don't wanna fall but
We should be wonderful but,
But all we do is bleed
When we can't heal at all, they
They bring us to our knees
That sounds so left to me
Our rights hang from the tree
They ain't got no right to be
So goddamn sinister, and
Those green books they don't read, say
Say love thine enemy, nah
Not shoot them in the street, nah
Not take their life away, nah
No one should know this pain
Those guns can walk way but
Black men just fly away
Black man just
(If you ran with Maud, we want you to stand with Bre)
(Because her life mattered just as much)
We all wanted to fly but not like this
That sounds so left to me
(Don't forget them like you did the others)
