Rodney King

I need to see a friend tonight or see the people in a bar
I need to see a friend tonight or see the people in a bar

In a sea of people, how many of them are evil
How many are fearful that the next step might be lethal
How dark does the government keep you, how do the police treat you
It's different for all of us, only anonymous if your see through
The economy's conning me, my bills committing sodomy
While the president's arguing over dirty laundry
Got me sick of trying to be an upstanding citizen
Maybe if George Floyd was up standing but then again

Dirty little world inside that needs to come out
Needs to come out

It's guilty til proven innocent over a rolled cigarette
Or a counterfeit twenty, the police out to get money
They'll murder for it, literally, never thought they'd be the enemy
One percent want to see you the end of me, I'm struggling to find the energy
I got this need for respect but we gotta keep these demons in check
With their hands in their pockets and knees on our necks, free speech or is it death?
2020 been a crazy bitch, she need committed to a psych ward
I'd say we all gotta pay for this but most don't have the time for it

Dirty little world inside that needs to come out
Needs to come out

Can't put a price of life, my advice let's fight
For human decency, cause up until recently
We ain't been treated equally
Whites on a pedestal, the rest treated terrible
Any elected official who think otherwise can lick my testicles
A racist in the Oval Office, corporate bosses poking pockets
To cover up the skeletons in their closets with broken locks, let's proach the topic
Are the ones with power actually able to cover up what's happening
When they are the ones damaging our children with sex trafficking, Damn

Dirty little world inside that needs to come out
Needs to come out

Was I selfish having babies with the world going like this?
Like I knew 2020 was gonna be riots and coronavirus
I'm handicapped by my own vices within my own devices
Wish this year I was on autopilot but we was born to fight this
Fuck ICE, Fuck corrupt cops, racist individuals
Sick of these visuals, candle light vigils and these fucking officials
Not following through on promises, codes of action
No Morals, no passion, no justice, no peace
Yeah, this worlds been cracking, don't you hear the vocal reaction
Change is in the air, I'm just hopeful it happens
The current system is broken, But I imagine
We're one step away from another social distraction
