| Rise like coyotes
|
| Rise like coal blackened thunder
|
| The fleet has left
|
| While the admiral slumbered
|
| Vigilante Nocturno
|
| Test the chains
|
| Gnaw the screws
|
| We are many
|
| They are few
|
| Check it
|
| It’s lead poisoning
|
| I live in a land of black ropes, white justice
|
| As long as she wear the blindfold, I can’t trust this
|
| I’m imagining what can bring such hate
|
| This phobia or dislike, grounds for a debate
|
| Some say it’s trigger happy, I say it’s lead poisoning
|
| Somethin' that’s deeply rooted in official embroidering
|
| The difference? |
| We went from water hoses to bullets
|
| But the valve or trigger, just a different figure to pull it
|
| Murdered by the state like the cousin of the John the Baptist
|
| As if Black youths aren’t nothing but target practice
|
| Overindulgence of power, a monstrous binge
|
| This creates anger, make me want to seek revenge
|
| You invade our protests, guns and heavy armor
|
| Riot shields and yielding a badge of dishonor
|
| Just a disguised version of the KKK
|
| Kops Killing Kids about seven a day
|
| Lead- lead- lead poisoning
|
| Lead- lead- lead poisoning
|
| Lead- lead- lead poisoning
|
| Lead- lead- lead poisoning
|
| Lead- lead- lead poisoning
|
| Lead- lead- lead poisoning
|
| It’s lead poisoning
|
| Rise
|
| Rise
|
| Rise
|
| Rise
|
| In all reality, Police Brutality cause too many casualties
|
| It starts from the improper training, brainwashing of their faculty
|
| Suppose to serve and protect, not disturb and disrespect
|
| With six niggas on my Curb face down inside the projects
|
| A long-term effect they done got on my community
|
| They killed Little Bill but the badge gave them immunity
|
| Rodney King caught a stampede on TV
|
| Now they chokin' niggas out 'til he’s like «I can’t breathe»
|
| I used to watch Starksky and Hutch and Baretta and Adam-12 and such
|
| Dreamin' I could be a cop when I grow up
|
| I would see you in my neighborhood and I would trust you
|
| But now I understand why Eazy-E is like «fuck you!»
|
| Lead- lead- lead poisoning
|
| Lead- lead- lead poisoning
|
| Lead- lead- lead poisoning
|
| Lead- lead- lead poisoning
|
| Lead- lead- lead poisoning
|
| Lead- lead- lead poisoning
|
| It’s lead poisoning
|
| Rise

| Rise
|

|
| Rise
|
| Rise
|
| Rise
|
| Rise
|
| Rise like coyotes
|
| Rise like coal blackened thunder
|
| The fleet has left
|
| While the admiral slumbered
|
| Vigilante Nocturno
|
| Test the chains
|
| Gnaw the screws
|
| We are many
|
| They are few |
