Anti Flag Police Story lyrics

A black man driving down the street one day
Pulled over by racist boys in blue in Brentwood, PA
There`s no real reason, they don`t have any right
It`s just that in their eyes he`s not the correct shade of white...

Driving in a neighborhood that`s reigned by whites
Ain`t healthy for a black man trying to live a lengthy life
All those cops they walked off free, but him he`s in a grave
His name is Johnny Gammage, one of thousands they have slain

We`ve got no rights...
....when cops can kill
It`s not right...
....we live in fear

Patrol man cruising in his car at night
Just looking for some homeys he can rough up in a fight
Pulled over 3 kids in a total rage
Next thing you know there`s bodies all over the place
His back up came & they`re all acting tough
3 kids vs. 6 or 7 cops all armed with billy clubs
The cops they did it just cause those kids color and their age
They say that`s not the truth, but this happens every fucking day!!!

We`ve got no rights...
....when cops can kill
It`s not right...
....we live in fear

Fear of what you`re gonna do, when a cop`s talking shit to you
Fear of what you`re gonna say, when the cops come gunning your way
Fear of what you shouldn`t do, when the cops try to provoke you
Fear that on any given day, the cops should take your life away...

They say they`re here to keep the peace...
WHAT A BUNCH OF FUCKIN` SHIT!!!

We`ve got no rights...
....when cops can kill
It`s not right...
....we live in fear

TAKE BACK YOUR RIGHTS
