No Justice, No Peace

Stop on the block, lock eyes with a cop, dirty looks exchanged
Fuck you too
Do you get it, the message are you with it, it's not black vs white, it's us vs them
I'll say it again, you draw blood with the gun, I'll draw ink with the pen
Where the good cops been
Outta sight, definitely outta reach
While another black man, is murdered by police
Peaceful demonstrations, greeted with gas in the streets
A beautiful flower dead because it couldn't breathe
So is it all good if you take a knee
You just killed the rose, that grew from the concrete

Yes only three, three simple words, that echo in the street
I can't breathe
No justice, certainly no peace, and you can stand, but this is why we knee
Fuck Donald Trump, and mother fuck a Tweet, so yes we chant
Fuck the Police
Speak up, in this time of need
Because there is no justice, and certainly no peace

Shots on the block, wrong place no knock, street clothes at night
Fuck you too
Do you get it, the message are you with it
Bitch you still don't get it, just think for a minute
Cops acquitted again, murderers behind a badge, seems to be the trend
Where the fuck you been
Outta sight, definitely outta reach, cause we didn't see your face
When we were marched down the street
Just more excuses, to justify police, she's deceased and these fucks walk free
So say her name and a prayer when you eat
For yet another rose, that grew from concrete

Yes only three, three simple words, that echo in the street
I can't breathe
No justice, certainly no peace, and you can stand, but this is why we knee
Fuck Donald Trump, and mother fuck a Tweet, so yes we chant
Fuck the Police
Speak up, in this time of need, because there is no justice, and certainly no peace
Fuck the Police
Fuck the Police
Fuck the Police
