power struggle - kkkops lyrics

cops shot him in the back, cops shot him in the head
cops choked out a man and beat him half to death
you see it all the time on the news
or on the block that you live as you cruise
they k!lled alex nieto before he went to work
some gentrifying yuppie called the pigs, what a jerk
cos they saw a young brother with a tazer at his side
he worked security, still shot him 59 times
sandra bland roughed up and arrested
for speaking her mind to a cop she detested
in the morning they find her strung up on a rope
called it suicide, yeah right, nope!
eric garner got choked out for selling cigarettes
told the cop “i can’t breathe” still ended up dead
freddie gray got his neck snapped in the back of a van
because he ran, baltimore, god d-mn

[chorus]
indite, convict, send those k!ller cops to jail
the whole d-mn system is guilty as h-ll

fong lee k!lled by minneapolis pd
met his mom and pops, cried with his family
police claims the kid had a gun, video shows empty hands as he runs
bay area won’t forget oscar grant
new years night, the whole train heard a bang
shot him in the back, while cuffed face down
this is what happens when you’re black in the town
a long list of lives that left this earth
by the hands who swore to protect and serve
they got the nerve to take our tax
yet they shoot us down when we fight back
protest in peace, they release the dogs
try to use their courts when they break the law
no faith in the system that protects the rich
and condemns the poor and takes their sh-t

[chorus]

corrupt coppers, all over the world
from mexico to mindanao, who do you serve?
corporations getting down, extracting the earth
tearing down shanty towns, down in the dirt
increase police before they gentrify hoods
and the beast to displace people that stood
it’s a work in progress i guess
you protest this mess they attack our flesh
chained up, toed up, profiled, humiliated
walking down the street, while whiteboys get inebriated
hate the feeling of being innocent
cos it means you become a victim
they say some cops ain’t that bad
i say it’s the system so don’t get mad
bodyguards of the state and market too
supersedes the needs of me and you
