Scream (Band) - Fight/American Justice lyrics
[Scream Band - Fight/American Justice lyrics]
Look at me, I look at you
What the fuck you gonna do?
I feel boxed in, well, I just wanna fight
Through the problems in the night
Fight (for what you think is right)
Hey, all ye crunchcloths, we all say
Fight for the united way
Fight together, fight as one
Fight forever till we've won
Fight (for what you think is right) to unite
I'm walking down the street
Just a-minding my own
In a strange town, a thousand miles from home
When I'm searched by the man
And he says to me
That "I am the law" and that's
The way it's gonna be
It's called American justice
But we know the truth
It's called American justice
But what can we do?
No matter what's the truth
They're gonna put you away
Push you around, no matter just what you say
It's them against you
But you're not just alone
Even though it seems your only
Friend is the telephone
And it's called American justice
But we know the truth
It's called American justice
But what can we do?
They're never wrong, only mistaken
It don't replace your rights
That have been taken
They throw the book away
You've been forsaken
For American justice has just been faking
If you got no money then
You're just out of luck
'Cause the lawyers and legal aid
They just don't give a fuck
That's why the jails are full
Of the poor and black and once they get out
You know they end up just going back
It's called American justice
But we know the truth
It's called American justice
But what can we do?
Yeah, what can we do about American Justice?
American Justice
What the fuck you gonna do?
I feel boxed in, well, I just wanna fight
Through the problems in the night
Fight (for what you think is right)
Hey, all ye crunchcloths, we all say
Fight for the united way
Fight together, fight as one
Fight forever till we've won
Fight (for what you think is right) to unite
I'm walking down the street
Just a-minding my own
In a strange town, a thousand miles from home
When I'm searched by the man
And he says to me
That "I am the law" and that's
The way it's gonna be
It's called American justice
But we know the truth
It's called American justice
But what can we do?
No matter what's the truth
They're gonna put you away
Push you around, no matter just what you say
It's them against you
But you're not just alone
Even though it seems your only
Friend is the telephone
And it's called American justice
But we know the truth
It's called American justice
But what can we do?
They're never wrong, only mistaken
It don't replace your rights
That have been taken
They throw the book away
You've been forsaken
For American justice has just been faking
If you got no money then
You're just out of luck
'Cause the lawyers and legal aid
They just don't give a fuck

Of the poor and black and once they get out
You know they end up just going back

But we know the truth
It's called American justice
But what can we do?
Yeah, what can we do about American Justice?
