lyrics

Flashing lights
Pulling up behind
Cross my fingers, hoping that I don’t die
If im white, it was just a tail light
But If im brown, ill probably end up face down

Condemned to a maliscious fate
Filling up the streets with hate
'Preserve the peace' a message that the news cant corroborate

dealers and theives deserve to die?
Call it a warzone to justify

Getting away, getting away with murder

Body cams malfunctioning
without hesitation I start firing
I feared for my life don’t you see?
Just listen to my testimony
Short suspension with paid leave,
theres no consequences for me

(Chorus)
Conditioned through discrimination
Killing without hesitation
Self-defensive murder is a reasonable expectation
Fill your prisons for petty crimes
No lives matter inside your mind

Fill up the morgue, with the youth of minorities then
Beating my wife due to trauma from my job duties

A badge that protects you from scrutiny
A full body armor of immunity
Investigating your own employees,
surprised to find that your own are always clean (
Red and blue lights should signify protection
But instead they represent government infection
A national purge disguised in blue
But You won't care until the next victim is you
