They took us from our country
Took away our history
Like black Wallstreet they destroyed our economy
Miseducated you and me
Police kill us freely in the streets
And they blame us for our own misery!

by Leon Kwasi Kuntuo AasareBut every time they lie
They tighten their own chain
The chain they mean for you
Is marked with their own names.
I swear that some have vowed
That the next time cops take aim
They should think about that bullet:
heading for…another brain.We will stand between you
Until they put away their guns
and waken from their horror
of killing fathers and their sonsWhen they prove they can speak truth, that your lives belong to you
We will see the light of justice as it comes shining through.of the lives that we are honored
To defend, to treasure, empower
