LYRICS
Phase her with a taser
Make ’em run from your gun
Guillotine’s razor
If ya catch ’em havin’ fun
So, ya think might makes right?
(Right! Is that right?)

Whack her with a blackjack
Treat ’em rough n’ handcuff
No cutting slack
Or “call your bluff” stuff
So, ya think might makes right?
(Right! Is that right?)

Warrants no warrant
Some misconduct #uck
All your rounds are spent
Hit the deck, cover, duck!
So, ya think might makes right?
(Right! Is that right?)

LYRICS
If I could be still
For a moment… I will
I could try
To figure out why

Watch the wold fly by
Until I get my fill
Why do we kill freewill
My, oh, my! Deep breath…. *sigh*

Not too introspective
Try to gain perspective
Sit and wonder why
The love does die

Chorus

Maybe at last
I could grab a grasp
Go back to moving fast
By-pass the time lapse

Chorus

LYRICS
Due to your deadly glare
Your eye-piercing stare
We’re gonna knock ya right outta there
An internal affair

Question authority? How do you dare
Whoever said justice is blind or fair?

X-ray eyes see through I
The I should not lie
Cross my heart and hope to die
My judgment day in the sky

It’s an internal affair
Up the bum ingrown hair
After what you did to my Ma
There’s need for an enema
An investigation of your digestion
An internal investigation

Ta, ta, ta tainted justice
This just is

LYRICS
I’m not sure the lesson learnt
Was the lesson intended
Just because you’re wearing blue
Doesn’t mean you can do what you want to
Bringing on the blue boneheaded blues

You’re in my face
In my place
Trying to inflict respect
Systemic cyst
On the rectum ready to rupture
A corruption rapture

Come see the light at Gay Church
Church and Gay each and every day
“On your knees, Boy!” Pray!
Pray at Church and Gay
On your knees and pray

Posted on by admin

LYRICS
Police misconduct coated in corruption
An institution of misrepresentation
Brutal brutality beyond reality
In a cloak of hypocrisy

Lord! Save me
Have mercy

Opaque transparency obscured vision
Runaway truck… off the rails… collision
Backwoods thinking social illusion
Militant morons in collusion

Lord! Save me
Have mercy

Po-po doing a no-no… they don’t know
Civil rights trampled won’t grow
Through brute force respect you’ll bestow?
Enraged blockhead lands a fatal blow

Lord! Save me
Have mercy
Lord! Save me
Have mercy

LYRICS
Abomination
A black-eyed nation
Finding ourselves
In a sticky situation

Doing the same thing over and over agin’
Thinkin’… this time it won’t be the same
That’s just insane
Doing the same crime throughout time
Stuck in a rut of the moral lame
Slain our own brain

Appropriation
Of the Indian nation
Finding ourselves
In a sticky situation

Hypocrites fighting agin’ immigration
Thinkin’ we’ll be the ones to survive a purification
Hallucination
But yes indeed through our greed we succeed
In winning the war on self-mutilation
Degradation

ABOUT THE SONG
Chords
Capo 2
Em G/Em
Em Am
Em C D Em

This song is about hating hate. I’ve been assaulted by the police more times than anyone I know. I’ve been assaulted by police in Montgomery County, Chester County and Bucks County, Pennsylvania. I’ve witnessed police and federal agencies assaulting people in many more locals. It has never been about race. After reading a bunch of racist posts about police brutality and corruption, I go on to read hate posts about immigration. Hello, Earthlings?!?! Is there anyone home? (Still no sign of intelligent life.)

The video features articles, pictures and footage of police intimidation, police brutality and police corruption by The Doylestown Police Department, The Whitpain Township Police Department, The Lower Providence Police Department, The West Chester Police Department, The Philadelphia Police Department, Homeland Security, U.S. Fish And Wildlife, U.S. Park Rangers and U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE).

LYRICS
For hours, days, weeks and years
The fears of time moving too fast
’till a time when you wonder how long it will last

Chorus
Endure the torture
A nano-second at a time
Endure the torture
It’s gotta be a crime

Enough to bring a grown man to tears
God how long will time stand still
God have mercy — how long until….

Chorus

Are the clock’s hands even moving
The hourglass’ sands dropping
It the half-life even halfing?

LYRICS
We’re building a prison
You’re already in
We’re building a prison
Too late to begin

It’s time to shout,
Breakout!
‘take my freedom,
Takeout

What’s our independence all about?

They’re building a prison
I’m already in
They’re building a prison
Too late to begin

Watch the fall… Independence Hall
Watching the fall of us all
Watch the travesty of liberty
Sights our eyes should never see

LYRICS
The policeman, the judge… the mayor
Have it out for the butcher and the baker
The policeman, the judge… the mayor
Have it out for everyone even the candlestick maker
Bet you find that hard to believe
Sure you find that hard to believe

An eruption of corruption beyond imagination
Devastation to civilization beyond comprehension
Bet you find that hard to believe
Sure you find that hard to believe
