	Shots fired by hired thugs Public servants dont murder and maim Hiding behind their double standards Targeting the victims with bullets and blame Providing a wall of defense for dictators and tyrants Shielding them from accountability, concern and complaints Showing zero tolerance and lacking restraint Combating defiance with violence All while they decide our fates Creat a story from an "impartial and reliable" source One that sanctions and justifies force And allows those reponsible to parade their remorse While the corpse is further desecrated Another terror tatic the police implement Resentment shown to those who oppose and hold this whole charade in contempt When police over reaction is caught by the cameras The world watches to see what happens next The politicians protect and defend those responsible For needlessly gunning down or beating a person to death This gross abuse of power sets the example of violence And rejects the ideals of tolerance and respect So will their continuing assaults result in more violence? What else could they possibly expect? Now that theyve set the precedence For brutality towards activists and excusing police actions All other cities can increase their efforts To stifle the message and stamp out reaction What happened to our right to assemble? This resembles the tactics the fascists enacted To insure that no one listens while they lock us in prisons And everyone's civil and human rights are retracted
