Shame Shame

It's like they came to get him
Like the main aim was to hit him
Shame shame the system
To add insult to loss now it's blame the victim
What's the cost to get change around here?
I'm just a stranger passing through
What's that hanging over there?
Strange fruit
So familiar
That which doesn't' kill ya will try to finish (Nietzsche that)
With a knee on your neck for nine minutes
Wait a...
You hear the sirens in the distance?
They're not coming. We keep listening.
I miss my brother. Yeah, I miss him.
You see what they did to him?

This is not a song it's a satisfaction
They gave me a call, I wrote a call to action
I know enough to know addition
Coalesce the coalition
Gang, build. Build!
Get free. Get healed
Let's get together now
Don't shut up. Shut 'em down
Like, what's up? What's up now?
You know the vibes
Freedom, justice, and equality, God
Stand for something
Brownsville never ran from nothing
Never will
I said Justice!
May I remind you, this is addressed to the divine you
The highest high
The I and I
You are loved
By the by, the light in your eyes is where God resides
I am a man and I am civilized
Come stand on these shoulders
Breathe deep. Focus
Right now, all roads stem from Minnesota
When that bright star collapsed the world had to take notice
The so-called social contract needs a makeover

When living ain't enough
Something's gotta give
Beyond the rhetoric and politics the problem is
The model is appeased by oppressive tendencies
That will have to be systematically and utterly destroyed

Let it breathe
Let us breathe
Let it breathe
Let us breathe
