Bully With A Gun

Intro (spoken)

This song goes out to all the bad cops out there.  I know it isn’t all ya’ll, but it also isn’t just a few. You expect me to say something when I see something.  Well, I expect the same from you.  When you keep quiet, you are just as guilty as those bullies that you call brothers.  You do NOT have the right to remain silent...and we’re watching you...

The streets are alive, man, the city’s in motion
(Yo) just pick a direction, notice all the commotion
I’ve got a notion that folks cannot control their emotion
The boot’s off the throat - there just might be an explosion

The scene on Fourteenth, (it) ain’t one of isolation
The fucking nation is packed with people losing their patience
We ain’t quite hit the point where we be calling for vengeance
But that’s coming quick if we don’t start seeing changes

YOU AIN’T NOTHIN’ BUT A BULLY WITH A GUN
MAYBE YOU SHOULD BE STARING DOWN THE BARREL OF ONE

YOU AIN’T NOTHIN’ BUT A BULLY WITH A GUN
MAYBE YOU SHOULD BE STARING DOWN THE BARREL OF ONE

YOU AIN’T NOTHIN’ BUT A BULLY WITH A GUN
MAYBE YOU SHOULD BE STARING DOWN THE BARREL OF ONE

YOU AIN’T NOTHIN’ BUT A BULLY WITH A GUN
MAYBE YOU SHOULD BE STARING DOWN THE BARREL OF ONE

Man I don’t want to take that shot, nah, I don’t want to have to kill that cop
But if the shoe fits, I'll wear it like your suit n' badge,
Your weapon ain't a loaded alibi to shoot my ass (ruthless)
Truth is, the roots are deeper than Missouri,
Every week they hit repeat n just flip the story
What happened to your oath  - serve and protect?
You thought an unarmed man murdered, would earn you respect!
Did you tazer a stranger or dispatch the neighbors pet?
End the life of a child who ain’t made high school yet?
Wow, these are some Heartless Cops
Hard to stop these damn Rambos of the parking lots
Who are they? Who are these judges tryin' to rob?
We're cryin' to God I see a city-sanctioned firing squad
It’s always the same old lame excuses to justify unjust abuses
“I felt him going for my gun” 
“He pulled a knife and tried to lunge”
“I had to shoot - my life’s in danger”
“That little puppy could have killed a stranger”
...Fuck That!
 
Break the cycle of this violence, tear down that blue wall of silence
