Rob Hustle - Good Cops lyrics

Let's talk about Good Cops! (Where they at?)
The triumph of evil is just a
Failure to act by all these
Good Cops! (Where they at?)
If you're dirty and you need someone to
Cover your back you need a
Good Cop! (Where they at?)
You'll never see 'em snitch on someone
Wearing a badge cuz they're the
Good Cops! (So listen Up)
If you're not locking up the bad cops
You ain't good enough

Yeah where all the good cops at?
People keep telling me bad apples
Make good cops look bad
But if 99% of cops are as good as they say
They should be able to lock
A couple bad apples away and yet they don't
Not because they can't but
Because they won't
Cuz their highest duty is protecting
And serving their own
The first rule of policing means
When in doubt they'll shoot
And if they make a mistake other
Cops will hide the truth

Even if they want to report a cop
They know that they can't
You're as good as DEAD on the force
If you get labeled a rat
Plus the union rep will protect them
From ever losing their job
And you wonder why there's
Criminals enforcing the law? Just ask a

Police are trained to lie to make an arrest
But they're not required to help you
When you make a request
They have no affirmative duty to
Either server or protect
And they're immune from prosecution if
They choose to neglect

Look at the precedent set by Taliaferro
Douglas and Warren no one protected Jessica
Gonzales's daughters
And when she went to court to
Hold someone accountable for it
SCOTUS told us that it was legal
For the cops to ignore her

That's cuz a cop is an enforcer
And his job's to collect stealing money
Kicking asses and cashing forfeiture checks
Writing ridiculous tickets and waging
War on drugs our city budgets are funded by
Waging war on us

Thanks to the

Sometimes a cop'll say, "it's not my fault
I'm just doing my job
I'm not the guy who writes the laws
I was following orders
Honoring the oath I swore"
And I'm like Nurnberg war
Trial principle Four

And some people seem to believe that
If they don't do crime
That the cops will leave them alone
And that they'll just be fine
"Go ahead and tread on the Constitution
We don't mind"
I can't believe that these people
Can even be so blind

See what they don't understand
Is that the problem at hand is systemic
It goes beyond a single woman or man
When good people let evil people
Keep on laying the plans
The banality of evil lies in obeying commands

Just ask a
