Reparations can't bring back our ancestors
Cops, the original kidnappers

No justice, no peace
Abolish the police

Knee to the neck
You don't serve and protect
Us, so who do we trust
You out here being reckless
Look around
Shit going down
Ain't no freedom
In this town

Knee to the back
Ya anti-Black
Our melanin has always
Been under attack
Silence ain't enough, time to shift the mentality
Let's take a knee to end police brutality

Let's get free
Give liberation libations
Let's get free
For the Future generations
Ancestors rolling in the grave
They help to keep us feeling brave
They shed blood
And they shed tears
It's on us to conquer our fears
It's on us to conquer our fears

Living in a nightmare
Somebody, anybody wake me up from despair
Not going to agree to disagree
But Juneteenth didn't set us free
1865-We wanted dead or alive
Bounty on our head
And oppression is the prize

Who do we call
What we gonna do
When the culprit and the criminal is you

Overseer, Overseer oops I mean officer
Officer, Officer, Nah I mean overseer
Batons as whips
Chains within grip
Uniforms of the oppressor
Grab the gun from the dresser
Don't forget the noose
And to you-we're strange fruit
Blood on the leaves
And bitter at the root

Black cop
Black cop
Such a fucking sell out
In uniform you're them
Embodying the sin
And then when you clock out
You at the fucking cookout
Ya afraid of us but we afraid of you
Trading in your black life and traded it for blue
The issue is the system
It ain't really with you

Let's get free
Give liberation libations
Let's get free
For the future generations
Ancestors rolling in the grave
They help to keep us feeling brave
They shed blood
And they shed tears
It's on us to conquer our fears
It's on us to conquer our fears

This ain't only in America
This is another global pandemic
A State of emergency
Not just killing Black men
Rip George Floyd
But women
Rip Breonna Taylor
Trans people
Rip Tony McDade
And Children too
RIP 7 year old Aiyana Stanley-Jones
Killed by SWAT
Yo this shit gotta stop

I can't breathe
Who will fight for me
We can't breathe
Who will fight for us
Who can we trust
Who can we trust

No justice, no peace
Abolish the police
No justice, no peace
Abolish the police
