Blossom and Prosper (feat. Tamika) - Gentleman

You the mothers who sent your sons Wipe away your tears For those who fought and those who fell Become our sons as well. You the warriors with your words Throw away your spears You talk of times of peace for all And then prepare for war. All the people with dreams, all mothers with sons All people with dreams never woken at night by the sound of guns. Like a child that's born on a moonless night Like a child that's born, we parachute down to an unknown fight. This city of blossom and blood This city suffered more than it should These sidewalk silhouettes not washed away, not washed away. Whatever you've done, whatever you've done, whatever you've done. There's a hope in the heart says never again. Whatever you say, whatever you say, whatever you say It's the price of peace to remember that day.

Black man, as your queen, I want you to know that I see you I feel you I'm on your frequency And although you don't frequently feel valued, you are You've been beaten, tortured, and slaved and stripped of your manhood You've been to hell and back and yet, you're still standing Persecuted, executed and broke down in every way But somehow you continue to find a way A way to be stronger, to be a provider, to be a lover, hell Everyone wants to be you 'cause you're a king And heavy crowns are painful But God gives his hardest battles to his toughest warriors Black man, I'm not your enemy, I'm your energy When you turn to me and you enter me, remember, we are one Until freedom, I will fight by your side I know you hide your pain with your pride You don't want pity, but you damn sure deserve a little mercy Until, until you walked in my shoes You can never ever seen my blues Oh, never seen my blues And until, you've felt the pain of a broken man You can never stop upon the stand Why I feel this way? Why I'm starting to lose my faith? Have a little mercy Show a little mercy (oh, yeah) Give a little mercy Show some little mercy (oh) Until, until we make a change (until, until) Everything that's wrong remains the same Oh no, remains the same And until, until love has it way Then and only then, there'll be better days There'll be better days Have a little mercy (yeah, a little mercy) Show a little mercy (little) Give a little mercy Yes, a little mercy (oh) Days like these days, they say won't last for long (for long, last for long) It didn't matter, we'll always find the way to be strong Days like these, they say won't last always (always) Oh, have a little mercy (yeah) Please, have some mercy Have a little mercy (yeah, ooh-oh) Take my mercy (ooh)
