lirik lagu eli conley - we keep each other safe
[verse 1]
it’s not enough to be not racist
we gotta be anti~racist
and link up with the millions of people of color
longing to be free
from this culture of death
our white ancestors left
find our humanity
[chorus]
and then get rid of the cop on the block
get rid of the cop in our head and our heart
we’ll be so much better off
when we keep each other safe
[verse 2]
now imagine this
somebody breaks in your house and they steal your stuff
’cause they needed money to feed their kids and they can’t find a job
so a community safety team
finds out what they need
and they help them find a good job
and they apologize, pay you back every cent
[chorus]
we can get rid of the cop on the block
get rid of the cop in our head and our heart
we’ll be so much better off
when we keep each other safe
[verse 3]
does this sound totally impossible?
like a science fiction dream
well that’s what they said about slavery and ending jim crow
the institutions our ancestors made
can be un~made if we make it so
[chorus]
and we get rid of the cop on the block
get rid of the cop in our head and our heart
we’ll be so much better off
when we keep each other safe
and we get rid of the cop on the block
get rid of the cop in our head and our heart
we’ll be so much better off
when we keep each other safe
and we get rid of the cop on the block
get rid of the cop in our head and our heart
we’ll be so much better off
when we keep each other safe
