in the trial aftermath
It feels like these are revenge killings
An atrocity unleashed in the trial aftermath
The ongoing daily slaughter of random people of color
But actually nothing has changed on patrol
A killer cop finally got convicted
And the police like predators are still on the prowl
Who brutalize their victims with sadistic blows
Then tell lies to cover their cold blooded crimes
This is the response we get
To attempts to reform the police
A continuation of attacks on us
Meant to intimidate and repress opposition
There’s nothing new about these assaults
For them it is just more business as usual
What’s different is the video evidence
Capturing and exposing their thuggery
If there's a law they don't agree with
They refuse to obey and enforce it
So don’t think the change can be legislated
We have to get rid of them completely
The thin blue line protecting wealth and privilege
Ruling over us through deadly violence
That is fundamental to what the police are
Why they must all be disarmed and disbanded
Without the police to enforce inequality
The whole system collapses
Like a modern day Bastille jail break
That has been a long time coming
