Lyrics
Smoke Pigs
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Please calm down with all the violent rhetoric.
some people who put on a badge are just trying to help people--just trying to do some good.
my dad,
mom,
uncle,
aunt,
brother,
sister,
son,
daughter is a cop.
i don't want to hear another word about bribery.
i don't want to hear about racial profiling,
broken bones,
or prison rape--or another unarmed kid filled from head to toe with fifty government-issued bullets.
there is a fundamental flaw in your desire.
there is a psychological deficiency in policing others.
those who maintain a structure of unjust laws,
those who bow to the province of the few,
those who would coerce others under the implicit threat of violent subjugation--your reign is at an end.
when they attack in the name of the law,
we will retaliate in the name of liberty.
