Protect and Serve

You hear the sirens sounding now you're on the run
The cops are after you but you don't know what you've done
Committed no crime but they boot down your door
Gun in your face telling you to hit the floor
I don't give a damn what you have to say
I never have and never will trust the police

Protect and serve how fucking absurd
Soldiers of the state from which there's no escape
Protect and serve how fucking absurd
We need to start today searching for another way

To live our lives as we see fit
It's up to us we must resist
Craving liberty we won't submit
It's up to us we must resist

Can't you see now it has finally begun
Desecration of our freedom can't be undone
Police brutality at an all time high
Leaving thousands left for dead still you question why
We still feel the need to raise our voices and speak
Out against the corrupt police

Protect and serve how fucking absurd
Foot soldiers of the state from which there's no escape
Protect and serve how fucking absurd
We need to start today searching for a better way

To live our lives as we see fit
It's up to us we must resist
Craving liberty we won't submit
It's up to us we must resist

The militarization of the police
Is a tell tale sign of authoritarian state
They're armed to the teeth there's no turning back
Citizens in the crosshairs and they're on the attack

I'm not blind no I can see
The overreaching hand of tyranny
If they don't respect you or me
Then don't acknowledge their authority
I'm not blind no I can see
The overreaching hand of tyranny
If they don't respect you or me
Then don't acknowledge their authority
