about
Philadelphia “comic book rock” band Stereotytans are taking on systemic racism as their latest villain in a special single release titled “ "breathe 4 you,” released Friday, October 9th, 2020.
Normally known for being a comic book-inspired hard rock band with hints of soul, funk and metal mixed in, the band felt compelled to speak out against racism and oppression due to tragic events that unfolded this summer.
lyrics
intro
i will cross the line, if i am called outside my name
v1
i am a man, i am a brother made of flesh
ya pierce my skin and watch my blood pour like the rest
the child of noose still keeps me headstrong
no i’m not your slave
i’ve marched through hell just to tell the stories of our yesterdays
still taking knees not to appease
anyone's selfish gods
but to bring to light, the black man’s plight,
my god.. despite the odds
we tried the peace while gas releases
more than tears from eye
the origination of ptsd nation angrily cries
pre-hook:
(2x) i will cross the line, if i am called outside my name
hook: (call and response)
so we say…
(2x) hands up and don’t shoot i can't breathe
v2
remembering the generations of you oh so long ago
remembering the conversations with your children of where did daddy go - oh (uh - oh)
now the youth is learning for themselves
many mothers cried
cuz many of dey sons and daughters gettin crucified like the jesus christ
oh gawd
pre-hook (2x)
hook (2x)
(transition part — hades)
bridge (call and response)
if i should fall tonight i will breathe for you
if i should fall tonight i will breathe for you
if i should fall tonight.i will breathe for you
if i should fall tonight i will breathe for you
pre hook (2x) i will cross the line, if i am called outside my name
vamp - don’t call me outside my name (3x)
will you breathe for my brother i will breathe for you
will you breathe for my father i will breathe for you
will you breathe for my mother i will breathe for you
will you breathe for my sister i will breathe for you
hook (call and response) hands up and don’t shoot i can’t breathe
