Hmmmmm no justice no peace Hate crime in our societies Is a rampant disease Better check your privilege before you judge and proceed Before you talk no further better check your privilege Coz it's a sad reality in cities towns and villages Autrocities so hideous Again again its history repeating itself So lets end this vicious cycle elders teach them little kids And finally dismantle institutional injustices For reconciliation we need this pilgrimage And over everyting we need humility and listening Coz chalk lines, body bags and coffins in the streets Coz another POC dies at the hands of the police Don't beat around the bush and call it what it is Murder murderers who abuse authorities Have you ever been profiled for no matter what it is? If your answer is no you're almost certainly Of a lighter shade and of caucasian heritage Right passport, born a christian, well-dressed, articulate Hmmmmm no justice no peace Hate crime in our societies Is a rampant disease Better check your privilege before you judge and proceed The privilege is in no position to dictate When justice is done ey for motherfuckin' sake If you haven't walked in someone's shoes, you simply can't relate Here's humanity at stake where it mustn't be a fate There's no right in the wrong and it ain't a debate Now take your all lives matter bullshit back into your cave And acknowledge the fact that we need systemic change Coz every coward can destroy but only bravery creates Until we done did it we ago run with it Until no other casualty no need no song with it Now who's walking the talk when the veil goes away Coz crisis are the times when wheat and chaff separate When racist policies in politics policing dis game When state powers are abused who's policing the state Who's protecting the people from abusive constraints Kindness is indespensable and love is stronger than hate Love is stronger than hate Love is stronger than hate Hate crimes in our societies Is a rampant disease
