Florida

Now I've got a story that I want to share with you

Of a young man name Tray he was on his way

Till that fatal day, well well well

It was 7:12 PM Travon's girl call to speak to him, yeah yeah yeah

He was standing outside his daddy's home

He was all alone, on the cellphone

About 7:16 the call goes dead

Travon's on the struggle now

He was lyin' on the ground

Fighting to save his life, and as the gun went off

He got hit in the chest in the neighbor who shot him confessed

And the saddest part about this he was only 17

He didn't even lived his dream

Ohh, (no) Florida something's very wrong (aw Yeah)

Need to know, what's going on?

(What's going on?) Can we make this house a home

Oh (oh) Florida can I talk to you?

Can we walk and have an interview

(Every time I turn around something is going, is going down)

Florida this land is overdue

Did I did I say that he was unarmed

How could a baby cause any harm

With no weapon insight now you know that ain't right

All he has was his candy in hand (his skittles) Candy

What about the family (his brother)

His father, sister and Manny

It's so hard to let go, what you can't control

May his soul rest in peace

But I hope and pray (I hope, I hope and pray) on judgement day

To have it all your way

And I know, I know, I know it won't bring back your baby

Sebrina and keep your head up lady

Brother Tracy be strong

For Travon

And the worst part about is

He was only 17 didn't even live his dream

Ohh, (ohh) Florida something's very wrong (They didn't have to take his life)

Need to know, what's going on? (Please tell me)

Can we make this house a home

Oh (oh) Florida can I talk to you? (Can we march all over this land)

Can we walk and have an interview

Florida this land is overdue

So Florida don't make me cry

For I got leave your way bye bye

White sandy beaches and wind

Where the sun doesn't' burn my skin

I talk with your first cousin Georgia

Heard what happened from the news reporter

You're surrounded by clouds, thunder and lightening sounds and now the sun is falling down

Tell me why you don't love your black babe is the same

Why you'll be calling them out of the name?

Where the son of a judge can hold a grudge and take a life away

And be free the next day

Feels like a hurricane

The weather so strange

Ohh, no, Florida something's very wrong

Need to know what's going on?

Can we make this house a home

Oh oh Florida can I talk to you?

Can you walk and have an interview

Florida this land is overdue

Oh my my my my my
