Riot

Is it a protest or a riot?
It all depends on your complexion 
Is it a protest or a riot?
It all depends where you’re coming from 

One’s for human rights and ones a tantrum 
You fight for your life and them for phantoms  

I don’t wanna know, I don’t wanna go 
I don’t wanna go down the drain 
Everybody knows everybody goes
Everybody goes in the end 

Crawling on the walls of the capital!
Everybody’s watching everybody wants a fall 
You fight for your rights and them for tantrums   
They pay no attention to your anthem 

Tired of the way, people look away
You know your silence suffocates 
Tired of the way, people look away
No repercussions for their rage  

You left your morals on the night stand 
Your double standard are on display 
Your lack of outrage is insightful 
When you just had so much to say 

Tired of the way, people look away
You know your silence suffocates 
Violence is the norm 
Not gonna conform 
You know we have face the hate

Unless we find where we coincide 
Racial divided left at the line 
Unless we find where we coincide 
That place inside 
Where the light shines
