Battle of the Free and the Authority
I saw six white men with their guns all pointed
At a young black boy who was just getting started
His mother was cryin' telling him to be calm
But the six white men shot their rounds till they're gone
The young boy hit the ground his red blood started flowin'
It was the same red blood that let the bullets start pourin'
The white men shed no tears they had nothing to fear
For the man in the sky forgave their terrible crime
And left alone was the mother who's first born had just died
Don't shoot your guns in any direction
Stop hovering blue badges over certain complexions
Quit ticketing the people to live in the city
Putting leashes on freedom for your own self pity
They don't turn on the lights so what they do can't be seen
From the eyes of the ones they pick apart till they're clean
If you can't afford enforcement don't write ignorant orders
Taking other peoples lives, just like the nazi soldiers
Fear to religion is nothing to ponder, for the man in the clouds leaves children a starvin'
But white men on their knees eat the fruits of his garden
The young black boy now laid to rest
Will never get his diploma never pass his test
His casket was clean his mother dressed nice
She did the best that she could, left with but a grain of rice
The six men live on with no remorse
For the man they gunned down at age just twenty-four
If there's one thing that I may ask
Stop shooting our children you PIGS IN BLUE CAPS!
At a young black boy who was just getting started
His mother was cryin' telling him to be calm

The white men shed no tears they had nothing to fear
For the man in the sky forgave their terrible crime
And left alone was the mother who's first born had just died
Don't shoot your guns in any direction
Stop hovering blue badges over certain complexions
Quit ticketing the people to live in the city
