lyrics

Verse 1 (Jedi):
5-0s follow the code society's own
Fuck the pigs, they don't know where to patrol
But to harrass on the ave. killer cops on the low
Takin' drugs off the streets but you still sniff it up your nose

Mr., Officer, I don't see you servin' or protectin' all the people
But for the rich you workin
What does your badge symbolize? Is it more lies?
More ties to masterminds and state crimes

Red, white, & blue if you was in my shoes sufferin'
How would it feel to not know it's true
Bald eagle got excuses usin' a warrant
Freedom is taken away and never fight for it

But to attract tourists and look down on homeless
Passin' by, maddoggin' and be all up on us
The rest of the people blinded by your flashin' lights
Neighborhood hot when the freaks come out at night

Hook x2:
(Jedi):
9-1-1 here comes a son-of-a-gun
(Intellect):
Day and night through the blocks gun smoke in they lungs
(Jedi): LBPD out to just get the cheese
(Intellect): All eyes on your TV screen

Verse 2 (Intellect):
Police steady trying to play the blame game
PD bullets firin' off bullets with no names
Im up against the wall gun to my back
i hate the brutality from a mufucka' with a badge

Brown men handcuffed by the bunch
Lil fiesty mufuckas' better pack up they lunch
Guerilla monsoon rap, watch me move back
LBPD lowkey they pull gats

Phony ass coppers ain't sayin' nothin' relevant
On the block, shit they find all the evidence
Politicin' on the policies they just agree to make
While they want to change the state they just want to keep the hate

Criminal ties, the government lies
They ain't care about minorities, the people's demise
Don't want to fall victim, so pray to the father
We ain't free cuz' them pigs commit manslaughter

Hook x2:
(Jedi):
9-1-1 here comes a son-of-a-gun
(Intellect):
Day and night through the blocks gun smoke in they lungs
(Jedi): LBPD out to just get the cheese
(Intellect): All eyes on your TV screen
