merciless law - a matter of skin lyrics
verse 1
a heinous crime was committed
and there is already someone to blame
a little boy, george stinney
he was about to see the face of death
bridge
he’s a murderer
he’s a raper
he’s abnormal
he’s not white
chorus
matter of skin
in the judgement
a matter of skin
k!ll with no mercy
matter of skin
in the judgement
in the land of the free
you may die
verse 2
on a bench, he was waiting
for twelve white man to play with his luck
in ten minutes there was a verdict
you are guilty and you have to die
bridge
you’re a murderer
you’re a raper
you’re abnormal
you’re not white
chorus
matter of skin
in the judgement
a matter of skin
k!ll with no mercy
matter of skin
in the judgement
in the land of the free
you may die
verse 3
on books lies his body
his sentence was written in blood
years later, still no justice
just a voice asking, “why me?”
bridge
he’s not a murderer
he’s not a raper
he’s not abnormal
he’s proudly black
chorus
matter of skin
in the judgement
a matter of skin
k!ll with no mercy
matter of skin
in the judgement
in the land of the free
you may die
