I Cant Breathe Slam
I can'T breathe
John Vorster Square
Steve "Bantu" Biko
Many a freedom fighter
Paid the ultimate price and
died in police custody
But all poor
George Floyd
Seemed to be fighting for
Was
AIR
The right to Breathe
Not to become a Martyr
For any person be he black or white
For Richard Lamoureux
I can'T breath
