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 to 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 to 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
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 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 my my
