Lyrics

They Say Denver Don't Riot
 Portland Don't Riot
 The Controlled Demolition Of Rage Is Far Worse Than a Riot
 Being At A Rally With the Chief Of Police
 It ain't My Definition of No Justice No Peace
 After All The God Talk They passed around a trash bag
 Collecting money For a Civil Suit
 Even though theres a mile long long line of pro bono lawyers trying to undo the jury
 Something Reeks in The Mile High City
 Got Co-opted by police in The Mile High City
 only lived here for a few years still my city
 If you ain't from the ruling class the enemy's the courts
 I know Zimmerman Will get it even if he walks
 I got that white Privilege wanna use it for what it's worth
 bring it to the face of corrupt ass cops and
 Wannabe cops who kill whoever they want and when they get caught all they get's a couple days off
 if Zimmerman's saying he carried out God's plan
 God's a white racist
 God is outdated
 the preachers serve the states they don't talk to me about hate it's all tough love
 I know which side I'm on
 they say Denver Don't Riot
 Chicago don't Riot
 you could gun our mothers down we still wouldn't Riot
 no justice no peace all I see's a fragile piece
 they burn the bill of rights and we barely took the streets
 gentrification sweeps
 black council members lead the war on 10 thousand homeless folks that got nowhere to sleep
 every city in America suburbanized like Paris
 So the yuppies ride their bikes to work and shop organic produce
 luckily I'm broke as shit so where the people are I'm living nice downtown but I'd be just as happy in Littleton
 I'm a white radical never on sabbatical wanna fight the power but it seems like they got to you
 never seen a Riot but I've seen some Riot Cops
 I don't Cry For Broken Windows I Cry For Broken Hearts Broken arms broken promises
 what a way of life here in the republic where your voice don't amount to shit all our voices undisturbed
 we ain't asking we telling
 I ain't smoking what you smelling
 in Oakland they rebelling
 In LA they shut it down
 And we just sit there listening to preachers giving speeches fuming with the anarchists
 my message to the government
 We're ungovernable
 And we don't want nothing from you
 Stop all the murders
 from Pakistan to Florida
 From Guantanamo to Pelican Bay
 I gotta say Motherfuck the U.S.S.A
 Know my class enemys the cops the courts the states the dollar
 The America legislative exchange council
 ain't no race war like the one going on since 1492
 what you think we got them jails for
 what you think we got them fucking jails for
 no white guilt here its just the way it is
 And the options of these white mothafuckers make me sick
 Lets Just Take A Deep Breath Inhale The Tears Gas
 Until the streets quake beneath our feet as the drones fly past
 You want to see change It Gonna come from the courts
 it's gonna come from the streets when we bring this shit to a halt
 ha
