Equalise Power
What part of you is broken?
That your heart cannot be open
To a person of another colour, what is colour?
What part of you is broken?
That you heed what has been spoken
By leaders who will never heed your words
Heed these words
It ain't that man that you've seen
Going by on the street
Making you feel unsafe
In your own home, not him
It ain't that girl that you saw
Before you made the phone call
Claiming that you're worried
That she means you harm, no
Your reasons for hate
Are not reasonable
When you discriminate
You are not reasonable
That call you will make
It is not reasonable
The actions police take
Will not be reasonable
You've been put in a bubble
To elevate your struggles
Your fire stoked by nonsense
That you swallow gladly
Apparently unable
To see what's on the table
The poison that you've been fed
Since your first days alive
And have you met the chef?
It ain't the one who's dead
Surrounded by the cops you called
And shells on the ground
Another soul has paid
Another laid to waste
And still your rulers don't care
And they won't care for you
Your reasons for hate
Are not reasonable
When you discriminate
You are not reasonable
That call you will make
It is not reasonable
The actions police take
Will not be reasonable
Time to end this now
Time to equalize power
Seize thy hour
Their communities
Are innocent and free
From the blame for what lacks in your life
You have no right
To see them under you
To subject them to the brutes
The police that you know are violent
You risk more lives
Your reasons for hate
Are not reasonable
When you discriminate
You are not reasonable
That call you will make
It is not reasonable
The actions police take
Will not be reasonable
Time to end this now
Time to equalize power
Seize thy hour
Time to end this now
Time to equalize power
Seize thy hour
Time to end this now
Time to equalize power
Seize thy hour
The elite want you to
Never own the truth
Of how they cash in on your hate
Before your shelf life's through
They've convinced you to act badly
Toward extended family
To push the progress back
Consult your heart before you act
That your heart cannot be open
To a person of another colour, what is colour?
What part of you is broken?
That you heed what has been spoken
By leaders who will never heed your words
Heed these words
It ain't that man that you've seen
Going by on the street
Making you feel unsafe
In your own home, not him
It ain't that girl that you saw
Before you made the phone call
Claiming that you're worried
That she means you harm, no
Your reasons for hate
Are not reasonable
When you discriminate
You are not reasonable
That call you will make
It is not reasonable
The actions police take
Will not be reasonable
You've been put in a bubble
To elevate your struggles
Your fire stoked by nonsense
That you swallow gladly
Apparently unable
To see what's on the table
The poison that you've been fed
Since your first days alive
And have you met the chef?
It ain't the one who's dead

And still your rulers don't care
And they won't care for you
Your reasons for hate
Are not reasonable
When you discriminate
You are not reasonable
That call you will make
It is not reasonable
The actions police take
Will not be reasonable
Time to end this now
Time to equalize power
Seize thy hour

From the blame for what lacks in your life
You have no right

The police that you know are violent

Time to equalize power
Seize thy hour
Time to end this now
Time to equalize power
Seize thy hour
Time to end this now
Time to equalize power
Seize thy hour

Never own the truth
Of how they cash in on your hate
Before your shelf life's through
They've convinced you to act badly
Toward extended family
To push the progress back
Consult your heart before you act
