Last week I was restless
I wanted to visit the square
Where George Floyd was murdered
Something calling me there_____
I want to see what the eye can see
I know I need to make peace_____
With what the eye can see
My father would tell me
For him it was all real life
In Jackson, Mississippi
Not in black and white
I want to see what the eye can see
I know I need to make peace
With what the eye can see
Bridge:
Since the start of 2020
Hundreds of lives were lost
Hundreds of names were painted
Up there on the block
And George Floyd’s name
Was right there at the top
I broke down when I got there
Like a faucet I started to cry
I’m a tough guy, kind of, but
So many lives
I want to see what the eye can see
I know I need to make peace
With what the eye can see
