Now Look
Back in the 90s shit was real,
Used to have dope rhymes to seize a record deal,
As police brutality caught reveal
Now look how we veer with one hit wonders,
Weak rhymes will get you there,
We hid to the underground as the government took the wheel.

As They Should
POLICE BRUTALITY MAY BE CAUSED
BY THEIR STORM TROOPER UNIFORMS AND ACCOUTREMENTS
DRESS THEM IN NUN’S HABITS WITH A ROSARIES AND
THEY MAY SHOW MORE COMPASSION
DRESS THEM IN A CLOWN’S OUTFIT WITH BIG SHOES AND
THEY MAY SHOW MORE HUMILITY
DRESS THEM AS GOD
AND THEY MAY LOOK OVER HUMANITY
AS THEY SHOULD...

Still a Slave Dad
The slave master is still taking care of your children
He still houses (Section 8) them
He still feeds (Food Stamp) them
He still has health care (Medicaid) for them
He still educates (Affirmative Action) them
He still robs (Cheap Labor) them
He still kills (Police Brutality) them
When are going to take care of your own children
Slave Dad...

Hurricane Katrina
The levees broke and the seas rolled in,
Killing brothers, sisters, and next of kin,
Police killed the innocent but denied the sin,
Now new season lies round the bend,
God help New Orleans if it happens again!

Very blessed that the Lord spare many

It Has Gone Far Enough
When you see
almost as many
White faces
as Black ones
peacefully protesting
holding up
"Stop Killing Black People" signs,
it's emphatically clear
that enough
is really enough.
The American people
are fed up completely
with police brutality
and want to be heard.
They demand justice
and accountability.
But who's listening
to the cries of change?
Does anyone care?

To Serve and Protect
When a black man has a knee pressed against his throat
police brutality has no known antidote.
He can't breathe; cut no slack.
Complaining he was choking, they ignored his plea,
and one cop kept on pressing his weight on that knee.
Both hands cuffed in the back.
People watched in horror as his life got snuffed out;
all they could do for George Floyd was stand there and shout.
He's died for being black....
