Witness Lyrics - Benjamin Booker

[Chorus] 

Am I 

Am I 

Gonna be a witness? 

Gonna be a witness? 

Am I 

Am I 

Gonna be a witness? 

Gonna be a witness? 

Am I 

Am I 

Gonna be a witness? 

Gonna be a witness? 

Am I 

Am I 

Gonna be a witness? 

Gonna be a witness? 

Am I 

Am I 

Gonna be a witness? 

Gonna be a witness? 

[Verse 1] 

Right now we could use a little pick-me-up 

Seems like the whole damn nation's trying to take us down 

When your brother's dying 

Mother's crying 

TV's lying 

All the reason's in the world don't mean shit to me now 

[Pre-Chorus] 

See we thought that we saw that he had a gun 

Thought that it looked like he started to run 

Thought that we saw that he had a gun 

Thought that it looked like he started to run 

[Chorus] 

Am I 

Am I 

Gonna be a witness? 

Just gonna be a witness? 

Am I 

Am I 

Gonna be a witness? 

Gonna be a witness? 

[Verse 2] 

Do you need another reason to get up 

See how fast they turn when you're looking up 

They say your dangerous 

Cancerous 

Not to trust 

Now everybody that's brown can get the fuck on the ground 

[Pre-Chorus] 

See we thought that we saw that he had a gun 

Thought that it looked like he started to run 

Thought that we saw that he had a gun 

Thought that it looked like he started to run 

[Chorus] 

Am I 

Am I 

Gonna be a witness? 

Gonna be a witness? 

Am I 

Am I 

Gonna be a witness? 

Gonna be a witness? 

[Instrumental] 

[Chorus] 

Gonna be a witness? (Gonna be a witness?) 

Just gonna be a witness? (Gonna be a witness?) 

Am I 

Woah 

Gonna be a witness? 

Just a witness? 

I 

Oh, I
