I wrote this for Break the silence but after I discovered this amazing piece from Ivan Chew. So I’ve submitted it as a sample but I’ve also included all of the seperates for sample use.

Open Your Eyes
I’m just sat here thinking
How are we still here
Nothing seems to sink in
Why ain’t it crystal clear

People falling daily
To nonsense seldom seen
Now there so much video
How much proof do you need

Open your eyes
And see
There’s people like
you and me
They’re dying
In the streets
Open Your eye’s

Open your eyes
And see
There’s people like
you and me
They’re dying
In the streets
Open Your eye’s
Open your eye’s

Shot for staying silent
Shot for speaking up
Shot for being different
Shot for knowing
Too much

Why does colour matter
Should it condemn you to fear
Your skin is not your story
And I need you all to hear

Open your eyes
And see
There’s people like
you and me
They’re dying
In the streets
Open Your eye’s

Open your eyes
And see
There’s people like
you and me
They’re dying
In the streets
Open Your eye’s
Open your eye’s
