Lyrics
Waiting for god to show up We're keeping our fingers crossed Can't seem to make sense of all of this madness Waiting for god to show up Look what they did to her boy And nobody's blinking an eye She's choking on sadness with no hope for justice Just look what they did to her boy Did she get lost in the rains? Or was there a lockdown at school? Maybe the ice cracked and swallowed the house up Or did they get caught in the fires? All this talk of faith The power of all our prayers Meanwhile kids playin' video games They fall but they don't get up Who have we become? What do we do now? The waving of our flags And the tears won't bring them back Waiting for god to show up We're keeping our fingers crossed Smiling at fireworks that light all our skies up While black boys get shot in the back Were they caught riding their bike? Or guilty of walking alone? I can't seem to make sense of all of this madness Just waiting for god, keep waiting for god to show up Oh god, who art in heaven, who art in heaven, come Stand with us, may your will be done, on earth as it is in heaven
