Watch them laugh unashamed while they tear your rights away
They're counting on your silence
Broken down by the weight of the climate they create
Psychological violence
And it's all for one and none for us
Just pretend you don't see it
Try to blame only one, but accept that we've become
A system that feeds it
And we've taken a beating
The crooked arm of the law
Authority overreaching
Dignity crushed in its claws
Take a look all around, won't be long before you found
Blatant intimidation
At the hands of a few, decorated all in blue
They suppress the accusations
Keep your head bowed down and don't look back
Keep your hands in your pockets
People have died for less than that
Made one wrong move, they got it in the back
And the moment of outrage
Matters not in the least
A little slap upon the wrist
Welcome to the belly of the beast
Little men with little minds, little rules that they define
These things are connected
Trust them with power without thinking twice, every man has got a price
Do you feel protected?
The chance is too much to resist, to hold another under your fist
I'd like to believe that
Each time another's lost something is gained, the blue becomes a reddish stain
And we are reminded of who they really are
