Boyz 'n Blue (How Many More? Pt. 2)
Speaking directly
To the Boys in Blue
Whatchya really afraid of
Let's hear the truth
You afraid of The KKK that's in ya crew
Thought he was a good cop
Oh
I thought you knew
Well
I fear for MY life
When I see you
Yeah
I wanna go home
To my family too
They say all cops ain't bad
Well I need the proof
Actions speak louder than words
Saw it on the news
Ya police brutality
How can ya justify
You just killed someone's Daddy
And watched his baby cry
Whether you choked him
Or shot him
He can't testify
Even with the camera on
You fix your mouth and tell a lie
Keep your apologies
We ain't letting it fly
You even killing our women
Good kop standing by
You're an accomplice
Protecting the bad guy
You're not above the law
Take a seat
While we watch you fry
You have no compassion
For my complexion
You hate me and for what
That is my question
I'm supposed to maintain my discipline
You're the trained professional
And you ain't listening
You're supposed to protect and serve
Sit back and observe
You're in my community
Give me a chance to clear my nerves
You got me staring down the barrel of your 9
And I'm supposed to be calm
Quit lying
You just killed my people for nothing
Last week
He was peaceful and unarmed
And got beat
Had his hands up to the sky
And when he tried to speak
You threw him down
Face first to the concrete
Stomped him
Punched him
Tazed him
And this the stuff you try to justify
And I'm supposed to believe
That you're a good cop
While he's screaming why
Mistaken identity it was the wrong guy
And we ain't supposed to retaliate
While we watch it on Live
And hyperventilate
You get to hide
Behind your badge and gun
Just normal business for you
You get to kill for fun
This ain't a game
You taking real lives
With that smug look on your face
We finna ride
No innocent bystanders
No need to hide
We only want you
Either you go to jail for murder
Like we do
Or you face street justice
Like we do
I can't breathe
No threat and you still kill us
United we will fight back
We will stand with the good officers
No Justice
No Peace
How Many More
