[Blue Scholars - Oskar Barnack ∞ Oscar Grant lyrics]
(We got the right to bear arms but)
Shoot the cops, shoot the cops
Shoot the cops
Take your cameras out your pockets people
Shoot the cops, shoot the cops
Shoot the cops
Take your cameras out your pockets people
If they wanna shoot at us
Got a right to shoot em up
They shoot us in the back
Then they say it's from the front
You're warned even if you aren't armed
They will find an excuse to do you harm
If they think you're out of line
In every city's urban jurisdiction
You will find some people making livings out
Of creeping from behind
And even if behaving most the
Time, man they know
If an officer's to blame they
Need to let it go
With a family at home, a mortgage to support
In times when it's hella hard as
Fuck to find a job if you wanna keep yours
You better not inform
Don't wanna be the side on the
Wrong side of the law
But guess what the people got
A weapon of their own
The lens and a shutter built
Into a mobile phone
Evidence admissible in court even
More more documented
Cases of what thing going on
(We got the right to bear arms but)
Shoot the cops, shoot the cops
Shoot the cops
Take your cameras out your pockets people
Shoot the cops, shoot the cops
Shoot the cops
Take your cameras out your pockets people
I hear them saying that this shit
Don't ever happen in Seattle
And if it does it's really
Just a couple bad apples
But, if you're keeping count you will see the
Shit is not the apple it's the tree
It's rotten underneath
Oh say can you see no way that it's true
They don't wanna see another
South central '92 or Seattle '99
Even if it happens what they're
Saying on the news
Bad people mad justifying the abuse
And youth
Especially the ones with darker features
Being targeted to boot
And true, some people can't handle the truth
Now keep that feeling in mind
When you pull the camera
Out and ask a pig to smile at you
I'm ain’t talking one I'm talking 3 or 4 or 5
What you so afraid of if
You ain't committing crime
We are merely doing what a citizen should do
Better act right if I were you
The world is watching you
(We got the right to bear arms but)
Shoot the cops, shoot the cops
Shoot the cops
Take your cameras out your pockets people
Shoot the cops, shoot the cops
Shoot the cops
Take your cameras out your pockets people
Shoot the cops, shoot the cops
Shoot the cops
Take your cameras out your pockets people
Shoot the cops, shoot the cops
Shoot the cops
Take your cameras out your pockets people
If they wanna shoot at us
Got a right to shoot em up
They shoot us in the back
Then they say it's from the front
You're warned even if you aren't armed
They will find an excuse to do you harm
If they think you're out of line
In every city's urban jurisdiction
You will find some people making livings out
