Plank Jones - Swing

The right to breathe isn't
Guaranteed if your
If your skin looks different
What you say as well as
Someone's knee can and
Can and will be held against you
Every day another one
Falls prey to them
No remorse and no apology
Leave with pay maybe
Not one day in prison
Corruption is rewarded and encouraged and it comes with a fat pay raise
Some folks say
That there's no more slaves
But if you're in chains what's the difference?
If you don't break the law
You won't have trouble
Unless of course you're a minority
It's a game that we
All must play
Though we never agreed to play it
Are we heard?
Barely
Protect and serve?
Spare me
Every year we're robbed
The least they could do is their fucking job.
Can't you see that
Society favors
Some of us above others?
Not at all
Are you
Above the law
Cuz you hold a gun and have an attitude
We will not settle
A badge is only metal
A uniform is just clothing
Commuting murder isn't
Justice served is it?
Thinking they're above
But in reality they're just a state sponsored thug
