lyrics

[Intro: Gianna Floyd & Protesters]
No Justice! No Peace! No Justice! No Peace!
No Racist! Police! No Justice! No Peace!
No Justice!
He did what?
Daddy changed the world!
No Justice! No Peace!

[Hook: Clarence The Kid]
I’m exhausted
All I really want is
To feel like a human being despite what the law says
Why do all the cops just
Hold our black lives hostage
It’s time for a revolution, we gon’ keep on marching
I said we’re exhausted
All we really want is
To feel like some human beings despite what the law says
Why do all the cops just
Hold our black lives hostage
It’s time for a revolution, we gon’ keep on marching
I said, I said

[Verse 1: Clarence The Kid]
You ain't really serve and protect (Nope!)
Why you kneeling on a man’s neck
What the fuck is you doing? (Derek)
Why the 12 never show us respect? (Never!)
Why they always wanna bring death
Bring death to the movement
Ain't it crazy how the people linked up? (Like that)
Everybody out here fighting for a change
You don't hear us?
Well I guess in that case we’ll speak up (Speak up)
Damn right, I’m glad that you motherfuckers fear us
We don't want none of your problems
We want justice for all of the fallen
Sick of seeing disrespect from the forces (Sick of it!)
Protectors of law acting lawless (What?)
Ain’t nobody really doing nothing bad (We’re really not)
Walking peacefully and this is how you act? (Trash)
Lay a violent hand down, we’re recording that (We see you!)
Dumb criminals, why you hide behind the badge?
If you gonna feel for us, then kneel for us
Not for the photo-op but really cuz you're here for us
Y’all been faking on us, you don't care for us
Tear gas choking all of America
Ain't that some shit, speak up for what's right and you might get hit
With a rubber bullet or some pepper spray in the face
Five-0, that is not okay

[Hook: Clarence The Kid]
Yeah I’m exhausted
All I really want is
To feel like a human being despite what the law says
Why do all the cops just
Hold our black lives hostage
It’s time for a revolution, we gon’ keep on marching
I said we’re exhausted
All we really want is
To feel like some human beings despite what the law says
Why do all the cops just
Hold our black lives hostage
It’s time for a revolution, we gon’ keep on marching
I said, I said --

[Outro: Unidentified Protester]
I find it disgusting the the LAPD is slaughtering peaceful protesters on the streets. I had two friends go to the protest in Beverly Hills a couple days ago and the protest was peaceful until the police showed up with their excessive, violent force, shooting rubber bullets and throwing tear gas! Is this what you think of protecting and serving? Because I think it’s bullshit! Fuck you Michael Moore, I refuse to call you an officer or a chief because you don’t deserve those titles. You are a disgrace! Suck my dick and choke on it! I yield my time, fuck you!
