DON'T YOU CRY FOR ME
hope got my hands tied round my back
and time put a rope around my head
hung from the rafters of my fear
dark in the eyes
I try and face the world
I can't bear to
my knees hit the ground
and my hands start shaking
old feelings from
new faces
a rope on the floor
and a poor man hanging
please help me chop
this tree down
or hold me from underneath
words never once cut me down
oh don't you cry for me
I've seen an ocean run away
torn from the truth that holds my soul
down in the grave where I belong
oh what a ride
Identified my devil
wings to the sky on the run from trouble
with my own hands
no shovel
I dug through the ground
now I'm hanging above saying
please help me chop
this tree down
or hold me from underneath
words never once cut me down
oh don't you cry for me
down by the grave
that the law man laid
when the gravel got paved
finally I'm saved
when the sun went down
it set the sky on fire
I saw an angel fly
I never felt so high
please help me chop
this tree down
or hold me from underneath
words never once cut me down
oh don't you cry for me

This message was important long before now. White people have got to step up and stop systemic racism and white supremacy. We created this horrific problem and we need to fix it, as well as pay reparations. Black people should not have to beg and protest for their lives simply for being black.

@indigopierre6538 7 лет назад

they could have easily just cut his rope saving that one black man. However the problem wasn't the rope in actuality it was the enormous and difficult to cut down tree being the metaphor for the entire system of oppression that disinfranchises the back community as a whole. And not just one of us but ALL of us black, white, and and every other race needs to stand up and work together to end institutionalized racism because injustice is a threat to justice everywhere! He did a good job!

I’ve been listening to this song for years and have been thinking about it so much lately during these horrible times we are facing. Cobi, thank you for this compelling film and message. We need it now more than ever.

@cobimusic 4 года назад

It’s got me thinking about this video a lot too. Thanks for leaving your feelings here. I hope others share the sentiment.

Cobi I really hope so too. A shift in focus is extremely necessary right now and songs like this really help captivate a different perspective. Thank you for showcasing that!

@xshootingxstarsx 7 лет назад

This played while I was on a walk today, and I broke down in tears because this message ran deep into my skin and bones. I believe everyone needs to hear this now, and realize what's going on in this country-- and chop this "tree" down. Thank you so much for making such a beautiful masterpiece.

COBI!!!!!!!!!! YOU DID IT!!!!! Sooooooo many tears of joy! I am so so so proud of you. Even the comments below, I've read all of them and it makes me cry all over again. I love the comment, "I don't even want him to be famous I just want him to get the attention he deserves." Cobi you are deep waters. Your music exudes your soul so eloquently. You have a gift of reaching the heart with your words and a talent with your voice that is pleasing to the ear and calming to the soul. I salute you and all you do! Forever your friend and your fan! So much love to you brother!!! And super shout out to Adam, Reza, Ava, Daniel, Angelica & Zaid for the tireless work you did through out the process to make this a reality. I am so grateful to have been a part of this momentous event. Jacob, thanks for being who you are and making connections like this we all get to be changed by.

This song means a lot to me! I have spent the majority of my life trying to hang myself with the rope that I have created. Thank God for my family. They have held me up and refused to let me die. I'm still shopping at that damn tree but I wouldn't even be able to swing the axe if not for my family and I know they are standing next to me everyday chopping just as hard. Family is all. Even if you weren't born with a good one you can make one.

@humanbeing3337 4 года назад

Got snagged by this melody a few months back - understood the lyric “rope around my head” thought it was a suicide theme - every time it played randomly on the music feed - it stopped me in my tracks and cried turn up the volume. Decided to give money for it. Then watched the vid. Cannot watch without tears streaming - hits a deep place of shame. Thank you songwriter for reaching in, gripping every heart string and plucking the pain there. May abundant blessings be yours Artist.

I have been having so much inner conflict with grief of a personal loss since January, and not being able to express it or be there for the people that matter most to me because I can't except that he is gone. The lyrics of this song just spoke to me. Obviously, it wasn't meant for me. Just know that you are doing something right with your music

@TaraAngel94 7 лет назад

A modern day "Strange Fruit". Chilling, graphic, heart wrenching. But we have to face that this was and in some ways still in existence in terms of racial tension. Many people want to act as if racism never truly existed, but the cold harsh reality is that it is responsible for countless numbers of deaths and it is still a major problem today.

@TaraAngel94 7 лет назад

@claratschoepe1023 7 лет назад

@hosealouis7760 6 лет назад

I think that there are very few people that "want to act as if racism never truly existed". Racism then was horrible and it hurts to watch reenactments of brutality like this, but I don''t see the point in continually talking bringing it back up and all the pain that came with it. Yes, let's not forget our history, but, no, let's not spoil our futures'.
