I saw a black man on T.V.,
Brutalized by authority
He was
He was beatened to the ground
Clubbed over and over
Just another case of abuse of power
It just so happens all the cops were white
6 on 1 the pigs prove their might!
Race crimes committed throughout the years
Police thrive off the public fears
Now is the time to rise from this staggent slumber
Stop the racist crime
Before its figures grow in number
Besides proof beyond a reasonable doubt
Amidst the angry ories and shouts
The guilty party get off scat-free
In their white-ex cop community
Basic rights stripped because of ones race
Among the jury
Not a single black face riots insure public outrage and anger suppressed for fucking ages
Some times it takes more than shouts and banners
We must fight back but not in this manner
You haven't challenged those who are to blame
Your cells and innocence the ones you maimed
These ignorant scum they have to pay but there's gotta be a better way
Human rights pertain to all the people
We've got a long way to go before we're truly equal
