lyrics

Under cover of law, enforced with violence
Villainy protected by the blue wall of silence
Use of excessive force breeding dubiety
Filling the public with constant anxiety

Rise, oppose, destroy

Fabricated suspicion, arrested sans evidence
Innocent people torn down, broken when they defend
Constant brutality fueled by the war on drugs
and racial profiling, enforced with shotgun slugs

Rise, oppose, destroy

Gunshots and flashing lights
Arrests end violently
A nation held in fear by
Police brutality
Serve and protect
That promise broken
Harm and neglect
Their crimes unspoken

Perpetual and never ending
Corrupt and seeped into their core
These blood-stained shards
Of public trust
Truth is a prisoner of war
