George Stinney Jr.

Silence the whispers, light up the sky
I′m going to heaven with black voice and pride
Electric chair, well bibles put me in the chair
Raised by the forehead to fight with my ideas
Raised in a vessel like seasons that flow
They thought I killed little girls all alone (ooh, hoo, ooh)


Let us imagine, let us sit tight
Witness never showed, black is my crime
Tears in the skies, rain down in June
Trained in our basements, fourteen, out the womb
Silence the whispers, light up the sky
I'm going to heaven with black voice and pride

Silence the whispers
Silence the whispers
Silence the whispers
Silence the whispers
