Common Hymnal - Innocent Lives Lyrics

[Verse 1: Bobby Alexandre]
Just to think of my little boys with dark hair and dark skin
How to tell them that they’re not safe on the street
Where do I begin?

[Pre-Chorus: Bobby Alexandre]
To say justice is blind
Is a shortsighted lie
If color don’t matter why is color first to die?

[Chorus: Bobby Alexandre]
I’m calling for change
To the injustice, stand and fight
I’m calling for change
I’m begging that we will set this right
That we won’t lose more innocent lives

[Verse 2: Bobby Alexandre & Mark Alan Schoolmeesters]
Just to think of all that’s lost when violence steals a life
Oh humanity why do we become the ugly side

[Pre-Chorus 2: Bobby Alexandre & Mark Alan Schoolmeesters]
If we say nothing at all
We are endorsing the crime
It’s time that we stand up
And regard the human life
[Chorus: Bobby Alexandre & Mark Alan Schoolmeesters]
Oh, I’m calling for change
To the injustice, stand and fight
I’m calling for change
I’m begging that we will set this right
That we won’t lose more innocent lives (Oh-oh)

[Post-Chorus: Bobby Alexandre & Mark Alan Schoolmeesters]
Oh, innocent lives
Innocent lives
The innocent lives, ohhh

[Chorus: Bobby Alexandre & Mark Alan Schoolmeesters]
Oh, I’m calling for change
Through all injustice, stand and fight
I’m calling for change (Oh, I’m calling for change)
I’m begging that we make things right
That we won’t lose more innocent lives

[Outro: Bobby Alexandre & Mark Alan Schoolmeesters]
Oh, innocent lives
Oh-oh-oh
Mm
And we'll protect those innocent lives
