Acquitted (No Justice) Lyrics by Tehondi

2017

[Verse 1]
I don’t wanna hate police, I don’t wanna hate police
I don’t wanna fear that a cop will slay me in these streets
I don’t wanna hate police, I don’t wanna hate police
I don’t wanna fear that a cop will slay me in these streets
I be paranoid every time a cop talks to me
Scared that if I move an inch they gone take shots at me
Leave me dead, leave me dead, leave me dead on the payment
Arrest my dead body, make me hashtag famous
And every cop is gonna blame me
News is gonna shame me
People demanding justice
Nothing is what they gave me
Where the good cops at? Are you good? Tell the truth
If you ain’t speaking out against the bad then you are bad too
I heard the new Klan robe was the badge and the suit
If the law don’t protect me what am I supposed to do?
We saw the crime they committed
Brutality at its fittest
But again the jury did it
Damn. Another one acquitted
[Chorus]
(Not again. God damn. Not again)
They won, they won
Ain’t no justice in the system
(Fuck 12 I’m talking bout the 12 jury)
Ain’t none, ain’t none
What are we supposed to do when the law makes us victims
And refuses to put our killers in prison
Ain’t no justice in the system
(Ain’t no justice in the system we all know it)
Ain’t none, ain’t none
[Verse 2]
What’s it gonna take to see these cops retrained?
You don’t have to shoot to kill to keep a threat detained
I’d rather be maimed and live then be slain
But I guess it don’t matter if you know you won't get punished
All this injustice being served got us sick down to our stomach
I don't wanna hate police but their system doesn't love us
I'm tryna find solutions, but does it really matter?
We scream the system broken they don’t change a thing after
Even with all the footage they get acquitted, able
To switch jobs plus get money, under the table
This system rewards behavior that leaves blacks in their grave
Doesn’t matter their race, evil is evil and another got acquitted
[Chorus]
(Cause we’re black their free to kill us what the fuck)
They won, they won
Ain’t no justice in the system
(Why can’t every cop be like Tommy Norman?)
Ain’t none, ain’t none
What are we supposed to do when the law makes us victims
And refuses to put our killers in prison
Ain’t no justice in the system
(Ain’t no justice in this system we all know it)
Ain’t none, ain’t none
(Damn)
[Outro]
(What do we do)
