Looks Like Me - Anthony Lewis

Real crazy in the streets

I think I gotta use my gift

To show the love and to support what’s going on

Check it!

I’m turning off my TV,

Because I saw a young man that LOOKS LIKE ME

And his mother was crying

'Cause he was laying dead out in the streets

How could this be?

You’re not here for protection

Well, it’s my very life you’re taking, no!

I’m really trying to figure this out

Can anyone tell me how we CAN MAKE A CHANGE?!

We should start by washing out colors

And just switch out what’s wrong for what’s right

Take a stand and start loving each other

And if we do it with our voices raised

The world will hear us say

Love is on the way

Yeaah yeahh

Love is on the way

Yeaah yeahh

Love is on the way

Yeaah yeahh

It’s like a horror movie, 'cause it all just feels so make believe

Isn’t this our country?

Then why do I feel like they don’t even care about me?

Oh God, enough is enough, we keep dying

There’s so many tears, and no drying

No, this can’t be love

I’m really trying to figure this out

Can anyone tell me how we CAN MAKE A CHANGE?!

We should start by washing out colors

And just switch out what’s wrong for what’s right

Take a stand and start loving each other

And if we do it with our voices raised

The world will hear us say

Love is on the way

Yeaah yeahh

Love is on the way

Yeaah yeahh

Love is on the way

Yeaah yeahh

I’m really trying to figure this out

Can anyone tell me how we CAN MAKE A CHANGE?!

We should start (right now!) by washing out colors

And just switch out what’s wrong for what’s right

Take a stand and start loving each other

And if we do it with our voices raised

The world will hear us say

Love is on the way

Yeaah yeah

Love is on the way

Yeaah yeah

Love is on the way

Yeaah yeah

It’s coming to you, it’s coming to you

Love is on the way!
