11. Contempt Breeds Contamination (4:28)
Mistaken identity,
you really got this one wrong.
Racially singled out,
he must have a gun.
And yet you get off,
with no time.
How can this be the answer?
No crime yet they shot away.
He now lies dead,
the blood is on your hands.
Hands which,
were supposed to protect.
People like the man,
you blew away.
This is injustice,
this is corruption.
The four protectors,
fired 41 shots.
Hitting him 19 times!
Searching the body,
there were no weapons found.
He lies with all,
who died in vain.
Murder must still be a crime,
when our inherent freedom,
is hatefully gunned down,
by who we entrust.
And you get off,
with no time.
How can this be the answer?
No crime yet they shot away.
He now lies dead,
the blood is on your hands.
Hands which,
were supposed to protect.
People like the man,
you blew away.
This is injustice,
this is corruption.
The four protectors,
fired 41 shots.
Hitting him 19 times!
Searching the body,
there were no weapons found.
He lies with all,
who died in vain.
Contempt breeds contamination...
