They say it Was a riot But not a protest And that's okay Because it was over A victory Thousands took to the streets Because the eagles won something But if your black and want something Then you're a fucking threat If you're fighting for a basic right Or you just wanna live They'll lock you up They'll shoot you down They'll mock you in the end They set fires to the streets But where were the pigs Laughing and cheering With the rest of them They say all lives matter But only them Not if your black Or your Mexican In private prisons They fill the jails But if your white And your rape someone Well, It's not your fault Cuz your one of us If you came here for a better life Well they country says that Your aint right To build a wall To keep them out With Children left in Jail cells They say all lives matter But only them Not if your black Or your Mexican In private prisons They fill the jails A Misdemeanor's got you 30 years Sell a plant and your life is theirs Separate families are the only goal Cuz there only doing What their told If you're fighting for a basic right Or you just wanna live They'll lock you up They'll shoot you down They'll mock you in the end But what is a riot And what is it worth To burn down some buildings To save the earth To bond together To save ourselves To try and repair Their living hell But now there's Nazis That roam the streets Waving their flags And trying to preach They'll complain If we shut them down But we don't want them In this town They say all lives matter But only them Not if your black Or your Mexican In private prisons They fill the jails But what is a riot And what is it worth To burn down some buildings To save the earth To bond together To save ourselves To try and repair Their living hell But what is a riot And what is it worth To burn down some buildings To save the earth To bond together To save ourselves To try and repair Their living hell
