michael vetter - murdered names lyrics

[chorus 1]
a perfect country is so ideal
but only lies seem to be what’s real
they just tell people, just keep the peace
if you don’t, they’ll go and shoot these streets
violence ain’t right, they go proclaim
as you find tear gas right on your face
i’m tired of these murdered names
i’m tired of these murdered names

[verse 1]
so god, i understand the anger
and i think there’s more at play here
we all like to judge others’ behavior
but who’s really makin’ true danger?
they’ll try to blame it on black lives matter
they’ll just say, all lives matter
which is true, but that doesn’t apply here
all that matters now is some police batter
people till they have no physical feelings
i know it’s evil, i know it’s demons
now this don’t apply to every policemen
my energy’s on the weakest
system in the world to protect needs of humans
from police beatings, it’s so inhuman
but god keep me calm, i won’t take no eyes
’cause everybody gets justice when they die
[pre+chorus 1]
and coach, you told me to be meek
and coach, you told me turn the cheek
i’ll go and gather up your team
kaep+tain’s orders, let’s take a knee

[chorus 2]
a perfect country is so ideal
but only lies seem to be what’s real
they just tell people, just keep the peace
if you don’t, they’ll go and shoot these streets
violence ain’t right, they go proclaim
as you find tear gas right on your face
i’m tired of these murdered names
i’m tired of these murdered names

[verse 2]
so god, i understand the anger
and i think there’s more at play here
the prisons need the police to get their labor
to sell to companies, so what has changed here?
yeah progress has been made, but slavery’s still legal
the 13th was made, but it’s still deceitful
sin’s been with us since we fought for our freedom
except for the slaves, the word just teased ‘em
and the irony is, we kept it for ourselves
we didn’t spread it, we kept the wealth
and the irony is, to protest brutality
people got it back, from la to dc
and i know my ancestors died
the tanks drew blood way back home in ireland
just like in our cities under blinding lights
but ’cause of my privilege, corruption gives me more rights
[pre+chorus 2]
and coach, you told me to be meek
and coach, you told me turn the cheek
i’ll go and gather up your team
kaep+tain’s orders, let’s take a knee

[outro]
a perfect country is so ideal
but only lies seem to be what’s real
they just tell people, just keep the peace
if you don’t, they’ll go and shoot these streets
’cause it’s not a place
this country is to be a sound
of drum and bass
you close your eyes to look up
