NEWS TODAY

Did you watch the news today?
 Did you hear what they said?
 One thousand more people passed away
 Aw nah, somebody tell me what's going on
 
 New York, New York, big city of dreams
 There's a nightmare goin' down from the Bronx to Queens
 And everywhere in between
 We fighting somethin' we can't even see
 
 There's an invisible enemy
 Just knocked out Italy
 Keep the mask on 'cause if you cough they gon' look at you like you done a felony
 And they say we can't hug nobody
 Not until we find a remedy
 
 So we pray for Spain, France, and the U.K
 China and U.S.A, I pray we gon' be okay
 Pray for the grammas and grandpas
 So that they can live to see another day
 
 Did you watch the news today?
 Did you hear what they said?
 They said don't worry folks, it's all a hoax
 The news is fake and it's all a joke
 The death toll's rising with broken hopes
 Now they got the cure and an antidote
 Inject yourself with a bleach of soap
 And a checks in the mail 'cause they know we're broke
 Did you watch the news today?
 Did you hear what they said?
 They said no one's alive to see the pope
 It's a ghost town coast to coast
 We're just people that's just tryna cope
 From different sides with different strokes
 Livin' different lives from different tribes
 But everybody's in the same boat
 Did you hear the news today?
 They say the world's one
 'Cause we're all fighting a war
 But nobody pick up a gun
 We got nurses and doctors
 They fightin' in the front line, savin' lifes
 I'm waitin' in line, I'm frightened
 In the store, ah, that's the hero
 Behind the counter
 They makin' the world go round
 Riskin' new encounters
 They in the front line
 Dying for the minimum wage
 ♪
 Did you watch the news today?
 Did you hear what they said?
 They said stay in the house, don't step out
 If you step out, put the mask on the mouth
 Six feet back, virus attack
 Soup on the hands so your lungs don't collapse
 Don't know the truth
 Don't know the facts
 Roll road killin' all the brown and the black
 COVID-19 got us on our knees
 Got the temperature risin' 106 degrees
 It don't care if you speak Cantonese
 François or Portuguese, Español or Japanese
 Gotta start sayin', "I can't breathe"
 Ah, Isn't it ironic?
 When we can't breathe, the planet breathes
 And we can see blue skies, blue seas, green leaves, birds and bees
 I don't know what to believe
 All the lies or conspiracies
 Ah, did you hear the news today?
 Did you hear what they said?
 One thousand more people passed away

 And on and on and on and on and on and on and on
 On and on and on and on and on and on
 Somebody tell me what's going on
