A criticism of police violence in America. Many lines seem to be written from the standpoint of a third party evaluating events and forecasting retribution and consequences, emphasizing that what has happened won’t be forgotten.
You're hanging by a thread
While on the front steps of catching lead
What will you decide?
Give in or give your life?
Live or die?
Will you comply?
Tell the prosecution we are not eluding
Man down
Where's the absolution? Execute the movement
Death bait
Face your fate, you won't turn away
Making waves for us all to see
Death bait
Name remains here for centuries
You'll be more than a memory
What is left bеhind will always undermine
The pillars of your judgmеnt
Stained, every single page
The rips and tears you've made
You wretched disgrace
Left in the wake
Forging their strength
Easing the rage
You will face a reckoning
Silencing your hypocrisy
Face descendants
Sentenced
No contention
Pure dissension
Face descendants
How do you live life, you hypocrite?
How do you lie for the sake of it?
The one better off in the casket
The one who's as toxic as acid
Death in your doorway
Death in your doorway
