Floyd Lyrics

I wanted to say something, typed it out

But couldn't myself to post cause' what am I about?

If the words have no actions, this is massive

What's with the blind allegiance? Maliciousness from badges

Should be adequately punished this is why Kaepernick took a knee

Police brutality, people casually act like we

Don't have a problem or you hate the military

Just cause' you call it out when the state kills a civilian. Very

Suspicious. Have you considered the premise?

Of the nation's anthem? It's decent against the British

Rebellion is the cornerstone this nation was founded on

But when it's done by people black and brown it gets frowned upon

Hypocrisy. We've exhausted philosophy

If people are at odds with cops it's in hopes that laws will be

More representative of the citizens as a whole

Who were the Minutemen? Is this different? Who has control?

What's Cointelpro? Where is Fred Hampton?

Was the CIA connected to the 1980's cocaine expansion?

If you know the answers don't be quiet

Understand, the last thing I hope to sees a riot

But I'm at a loss for words and if you've ever read the second

You'll know it's to protect from threats foreign or domestic

Police have a hard fucking job

They selflessly place themselves in harms way to stop

Violent crimes. Their sacrifice is noble

If you add the good and bad, I wouldn't be surprised if the total

Was more towards what's right. They want to serve their community

But a badge doesn't deserve impunity

Murders should be treated as such, if you violate the code?

Then you go to jail. This is why you take an oath

Fuck! You're supposed to be a superhero

Better than good. If you don't do this then you lose the beuro's

Blessing. Derek Chauvin is not a cop but a criminal

Who deserves a murder sentence, minimal

He betrayed the public's trust. What happened was wrong

Frankly fuck the fact I even have to rap this song

Plus, isn't a tenet of conservatism

Limited government? To unconditionally serve the system

Is ironic. Jesus was killed by the state

His crucifixion was legal, it's time to take

Fate into our hands and mold a more inclusive union

So I don't know, maybe what you could do in conclusion

Is listen. What do you believe?

How'd you feel when George Floyd said he couldn't breathe

It's destruction of property vs. destruction of people

If you're more bothered by the loss of a target than you are evil

We disagree

I don't think you have to think it's right to see

This pain's origin. The ethics of their fire

Is not the question. The effect of what transpired

Is not the cause, and that's what we should focus on

That's why I wrote this song

Think bigger than the symptom

What's the original illness that exists within the system?
