 Struggling with Pohlease? Become a better singer in 30 days with these videos!

As a Black person in America
When you see the police
Say a little prayer to the Shepherd
Who let wolves guard the Sheep?

Who police the police? (Who police the police?)
Who police the police? (Who police the police?)
Who police the police? (Who police the them)
When they get out of line?

Who police the police? (Who police the police?)
Who police the police? (Who police the police?)
Who police the police? (Who police the them)
When they get out of line?

Are they gon' have to kill somebody 
To get this revolution started? (Yebo)

It's been a while since the Ku Klux looked like the Ku Klux
You ain't gotta glue clues as common as Glucose
To glimpse them in a blue cloak, welcome to America
The new Coke a Cola coated with a bit a Codeine
Cope with or decode it, children of the corner
Get no dosage from the club
Club full of killers killing cubs just because
Color is a credible cause to make that bird caw
Incredible cost to a mother to get that cursed call
That's a curb stomp to her confidence
That's as common as condiments
That's the kind of incompetence
That'll conjure a conflict
We're at war with security
After we built the company
Yebo

Who police the police? (Who police the police?)
Who police the police? (Who police the police?)
Who police the police? (Who police the them)
When they get out of line?

Who police the police? (Who police the police?)
Who police the police? (Who police the police?)
Who police the police? (Who police the them)
When they get out of line?

Are they gon' have to kill somebody 
To get this revolution started?

Welcome to the gauntlet
We're in the middle of criminals and convicts
What's a convict to a criminal sanctioned by the law
Paid by the General? Even worse, who do you call?
When you're food for the law
When you're Garner and the concrete is intruding your jaw
How you shoot for the stars
When peace officers are shooting at yours?
How many more Malcolm Littles shot or behind bars?
While the Malcolm in the Middle's get a shot at the bar
Part of the reason why we throw so many shots at the bar 
Pardon my reaching, when you shot me, I was getting my wallet
Pardon my screaming but you take too many shots in the dark
Pardon my screaming but talking over your Glock is impossible
This is how it sounds when your skin starts biting you 
This is how it feels when your skin stars eating you
This is a problem
Not a black problem
This is a problem
Not a black problem
This is a problem
Not a black problem

Who police the police? (Who police the police?)
Who police the police? (Who police the police?)
Who police the police? (Who police the them)
When they get out of line?

Who police the police? (Who police the police?)
Who police the police? (Who police the police?)
Who police the police? (Who police the them)
When they get out of line?

(They) They gon' have to kill somebody 
To get this revolution started

They don't have to kill
They don't, they don't have to kill
They don't have to kill
They don't, they don't have to kill
They don't have to kill

Eric Garner (they don't have to kill)
Dontre Hamilton (they don't, they don't have to kill)
John Crawford III
Michael Brown Jr (you don't have to kill)
Ezell Ford (you don't, they don't have to kill)
Dante Parker
Tanesha Anderson
Akai Gurley (you don't have to kill)
Bettie Jones (you don't, they don't have to kill)

You don't have to kill
You don't, you don't have to kill
You don't have to kill
You don't, you don't have to kill
You don't have to kill
You don't, you don't have to kill
You don't have to kill
You don't, you don't have to kill, yeah

When you see the police
Say a little prayer to the Shepherd
Who let wolves guard the Sheep
Emmett Till
Yebo
