Defund Police
Defund Police: Challenging Authority for Justice
Lyrics
You let slip the dogs of war
You have unleashed chaos and conflict.
We just want peaceful reform
We desire a peaceful transformation of the system.
Another day and nothings changed
Despite the passage of time, there is no observable change.
We'll no longer play your game
We refuse to participate in the established order.
The broken mask has fallen off
The façade has crumbled, revealing the truth.
There's no such thing as a good cop
No police officer can be considered morally upright.
Was it the one who gassed a crowd
Was it the one responsible for tear-gassing a crowd?
Or maybe threw the old man down
Or perhaps the one who forcefully handled an elderly man?
All cops are bastards
A declaration that all police officers are morally corrupt.
Defund police
Advocating for a reduction in police funding.
Silence is violence
Staying silent in the face of injustice is equivalent to supporting violence.
Complicit enemy
Being complicit makes one an enemy.
All cops are bastards
Reiteration that all police officers are morally corrupt.
Defund police
Continued advocacy for a reduction in police funding.
Silence is violence
Remaining silent contributes to the perpetuation of violence.
Where there's no justice there's no fucking peace
Without justice, there can be no peace.
You incite the violence
Accusing those seeking justice of instigating violence.
Then you claim we riot
Attributing riots to the actions of those protesting.
But what more can people do
Expressing frustration with limited options for the oppressed.
It's only illegal for me and you
Highlighting a double standard in the legality of actions.
Rubber bullets and riot shields
Mentioning non-lethal force used against protesters.
Never a level playing field
Asserting an uneven and unfair battleground.
Another day and nothings changed
Despite time passing, there is no positive change.
At least we know that they're afraid
Recognizing that those in power fear the movement.
All cops are bastards
Reiterating the belief that all police officers are morally corrupt.
Defund police
Continued advocacy for a reduction in police funding.
Silence is violence
Staying silent contributes to the perpetuation of violence.
Complicit enemy
Being complicit makes one an enemy.
All cops are bastards
Reiteration that all police officers are morally corrupt.
Defund police
Continued advocacy for a reduction in police funding.
Silence is violence
Remaining silent contributes to the perpetuation of violence.
Where there's no justice there's no fucking peace
Without justice, there can be no peace.
All cops are bastards
Reiteration that all police officers are morally corrupt.
Defund police
Continued advocacy for a reduction in police funding.
Silence is violence
Staying silent contributes to the perpetuation of violence.
Complicit enemy
Being complicit makes one an enemy.
All cops are bastards
Reiteration that all police officers are morally corrupt.
Fuck the police
An explicit expression of disdain for the police.
Silence is violence
Remaining silent contributes to the perpetuation of violence.
Where there's no justice there's no fucking peace
Without justice, there can be no peace.
