A black man driving down the street one day
Pulled over by racist boys in blue in Brentwood, PA
There's no real reason, they don't have any right
It's just that in their eyes he's not the correct shade of white...

Driving in a neighborhood that's reigned by whites

Ain't healthy for a black man trying to live a lengthy life
All those cops they walked off free, but him he's in a grave
His name is Johnny Gammage, one of thousands they have slain
It's not right...
We've got no rights...
....when cops can kill
....we live in fear
Patrol man cruising in his car at night

Just looking for some homeys he can rough up in a fight
Pulled over 3 kids in a total rage
Next thing you know there's bodies all over the place
3 kids vs. 6 or 7 cops all armed with billy clubs
His back up came & they're all acting tough
They say that's not the truth, but this happens every fucking day!!!
The cops they did it just cause those kids color and their age

It's not right...
We've got no rights...
....when cops can kill
....we live in fear

Fear of what you're gonna do, when a cop's talking shit to you
Fear of what you're gonna say, when the cops come gunning your way
Fear of what you shouldn't do, when the cops try to provoke you

Fear that on any given day, the cops should take your life away...
WHAT A BUNCH OF FUCKIN' SHIT!!!

They say they're here to keep the peace...
We've got no rights...
....when cops can kill
It's not right...
....we live in fear

TAKE BACK YOUR RIGHTS!!!
