It was an average day in late May

The pandemic had already taken lives away

Almost the whole world was shut down

Almost everyone was on lockdown

Meanwhile in the state of Minnesota

It was the same feeling as North and South Dakota

An ordinary man was walking down the street

George Perry Floyd was accused of trying to cheat

Floyd was Innocent and did not do anything wrong

He was just trying to stay strong

When a white police officer who had no heart

Kneeled on his kneck, a life had to depart

Thousands watched from their homes the horrifying news

Of all police officers they’d now of hatred accuse

And the heartless president didn’t even care

Many people on their bedside said a prayer

On their Twitters and their Instagram share

People posted nothing more than a black square

And citizens young and old took to the streets

And held up signs and marched for justice and peace

And because the president was a horrible man

People were more disgusted than they possibly can

And the man next door to me to the right

Was also hateful within eyesight 

So here, we are almost two years later

And some people haven’t gotten greater

So all we can hope for is peace and justice

We wish no matter the color of or skin, great people could trust us
