We Can’t Breathe! ~ (For Mitch Henriquez)
What is the matter
With the Dutch police?
They put a chokehold
On unarmed Mitch Henriquez
Overpowered him to death
That was one too many
So the people took to the streets
Their anger against racism
And public ethnic profiling
With burning riots and loud cries
No more police brutality
Against people of color
Mister Mayor, we can’t breathe!
