sol development - no indictment lyrics

[verse 1]
our father
try to pray for peace but every day is gettin harder
can’t even scroll my phone without somebody gettin slaughtered
and even with our cameras up no charges gettin brought up
they body slammed our daughters and they execute our fathers
make us pray for peace because of what the pastor taught us
never trust they police cus of what the past has taught us
they lawless and they heartless
they evil and they godless
cause this holy war regardless
and it’s evident i’m militant that don’t mean i’m violent
contrary to your rights it ain’t right to remain silent
not when all our kids are dyin
somebody gotta fight to protect what’s right
so i’m faced with violence
fight is what you do to protect your life
and i can’t keep quiet
we can’t keep on marchin to rallies and have another riot
tryna boycott but m+th+f+ckas are still buying
the bullets are still flyin
and nggas are still dyin
and people are still [?]

[verse 2]
military mind state organize the village
respect protect our women form a circle round our childrens
elders at the center we rely upon they wisdoms
guidance and they council show them honor while they livin
brother can’t do much from in the grave or in the prison
a ngga think he free and really slave to them systems
victor or villain, i refuse to play the victim
see my sister ain’t no b+tch, my brothers ain’t no ngga
first we edify the language then unify the gangs
set aside our differences we bangin for the same things
it’s ghetto scriptures, recorded it in slang
then i put it in the music so i put it in your brain
yeah i teach him how to use it
yeah i show him where to aim
yeah i pull him to the side
yeah i put him up on game
we give him food for thought and let it stimulate the brain
we could build a nation up, tear a devil out the frame, bang
[verse 3]
can’t you see that we under attack
they shootin us in our backs
no [?] of the [?] part of san francisco just taught us that
we can’t run forever cus walter scott had just taught us that
hands up, i can’t breathe look how they choke that man
our black life is worth more than a hashtag
and more than a picket sign we livin in wicked times
we can’t call the cops when the cops when the cops committing crime
no indictment for they k!llers tell ‘em that we done

[verse 4]
riots and rallies ain’t sh+t
the iceberg is always bigger than the tip, trip
found guilty by a jury of six, b+tches
a d+mn man take the stand as his own witness
this is the america i live in
the criminals roam free and the victims go to prison
but we was born in prison been livin in poor conditions so
death is the sentence your skin is your conviction
i realize this is the trial we ain’t winnin
i realize we alive we ain’t livin
we spend a lifetime tryna fix a broken system
on our knees praying, beggin, hopin and wishing
please, i ain’t signing no petitions
i take a new position tryna break a broken system
until it’s broken it won’t work for n0body
if it don’t work for everybody
can’t work for anybody
so save the panther party
fred hampton, dr. king, malcolm x, marcus garvey
and your’s truly
screamin 50 [slugs?] for moody people love is our duty
we got to have unity
fortify the families and build stronger communities
educate our children afford ‘em with opportunity
show ’em how to love black before they reach p+b+rty
cus knowledge of self give them immunities
[audio: cat brooks]
my name is cat brooks, i’m the co+founder of the anti+police terror project and i’m a member of the black power network. and i’m actually based in oakland but here supporting san francisco
after [mario?] was murdered. mur+dered. executed in broad daylight in your city
i ask myself how long
how long is it gonna take for the chief to come out and tell the community that we didn’t see what we thought we saw in that video?
how long was it gonna take for the police to come out and tell us we didn’t understand the circumstances surrounding that murder? because that’s the take
that’s what happens every time, we see what happens and then you trot yourself out and tell us we’re not intelligent enough to understand that we saw a black man gunned down, execution+style in broad daylight in the streets of san francisco
and somehow you think that talking to us like we are children who have not been examining, watching, studying you and your system for hundreds of years as we figure out how to tear it down, push back, and eventually win as you continue to talk to us like children what you are doing is inciting the rage of the people
and i wanna be clear with you all that a new day has come
to san francisco, to oakland, to baltimore, to ferguson, to atlanta there is a movement sweeping this country and we are not going to stop until you stop k!lling us
until you stop k!lling us we will continue to shut it down
interrupt your business as usual
we’re gonna take to the streets
we’re gonna interrupt your election cycle
and i have news for you, chief sir
we are going to shut it down until you resign or until all of you get the courage to fire him
and oakland will be here every time
we bring the [ether?]
