Xavley - Negro Sunset Lyrics

Where do we go? I'll follow you
To the end of the earth, let you swallow me
Keep me company
Try to stand to my feet
And I fall to my knees, I fall to my knees

I try to breathe on my own
I'm so lonely
I be like where my niggas at
Will y'all come save me
Like cut me from this tree, watch me fall like a leaf
Then I'll hit ground and we can dance in negro harmony

Ay f*ck all you whities who left me to dirt
You did not discern all the shit that you heard
You left me to die and ignored all my words
You were my friends but you spat into my burns
But you're white, so I get it
You think I'll be around when you widdit
I think no, I don't feel it
You gon' have to find another nigga and miss him with the bullshit

If I could die and become a sunset
That would be so great, so can we be done here
Starving my lungs, been saving one breath
To just breath it out and become an orange crest

Up as the sky I'll be looking good, yeah
Up with the clouds we gon' make it rain, yeah
Bring the clean water to Michigan, yeah
And return the land to Indigenous nations
Give the kids back to parents who waitin'
And say the names of the people who changed us

Charleena Lyles
Shantee Tucker
Tamir Rice
Yvette Smith
Korryn Gaines
Rekia Boyd
Vontashia Bell
Michael Brown
Mya Hall
Travonn Martin
Dejanay Stanton
Alexia Christian
Tanisha Anderson
Janisha Fonville
Sandra Bland
Walter Scott

Let us run, let us run
Until we become the sun
Let us burn, let us burn
Let us burn for everyone who is cold
Who is cold, who got caught out in the snow
Who ain't got no place to go
So that they can really know that they loved
