Jaheim - Florida lyrics
rate meNow I’ve got a story that I want to share with you
A young man name tray he was on his way
Till that fatal day, now well well well
It was 7:12 pm Trayvon's girl called to speak to him yeah yeah yeah yeah
He was standing outside his daddy’s home
He was all alone, on the cellphone
But about 7:16 the call goes dead
Trayvon's on the struggle now
He was lyin’ on the ground
Fighting to save his life, and as the gun went off ..
he got hit in the chest and the neighbor who shot him confessed
and the saddest part about it is he was only 17
he didn’t even lived his dream.
Oh, Florida something’s very wrong
Need to know what's going on
Can we make this house a home?
Oh oh Florida
Oh Florida can I talk to you?
Can we walk and have an interview?
every time I tell around something is going, is going now
Did I, Did I say that he unarmed
How could a baby cause any harm, tell me
With no weapon in sight, you know that aint right
He had was his candy in hand, skittles. Candy
What about the family
‘cause father and sister and manny
It’s so hard to let go, but you can’t control
May his soul rest in peace
But I hope and driven. I hope, I hope
and pray on judgment day.
To have it all your way
And I know, I know, I know it won’t bring back yo baby
Sabrina keep your head up lady
and Brother tracey be strong
For Travyon
and the worst part about is
he was only 17 and he aint live his dream.
Ohh, no, father something’s very wrong (didnt have to take your life)
To know what’s going on?
Please tell me
can we make this house a home. oh
Florida
florida, florida can I talk to you?
Can we march all over this land
Can we walk and have a interview
la da la la
Florida this land is overdue
So florida dont make me cry
For I gotta leave your way bye bye
White Sandy beaches in wind,
But the sun done burn my skin
Had a talk with your fist cousin Georgia
Heard what happen from the news reporter
You’re surrounded by clouds, thunder and lighting sounds now the sun is falling down
Tell me why you don’t love yo black babies the same
Why you be calling them out of there names?
Were the son of a judge can hold a grudge and
take a life away
And be free the next day
Feels like a heaven hand
The weather so strange.
heyyy heyyy
Ohh, Florida something’s very wrong
need to know what’s going on?
can we make this house a home. yeahh oh
Florida
florida, florida can I talk to you?
Florida
Can we walk and have a interview
la da la la
Florida this land is overdue
Oh my my my my my..
