lirik lagu resnate - armed & terrified

[intro: k. bluez]
you have the right to remain silent
(i have the right to remain violent)
anything you say will be used in a court of law
(my right to abuse remains protected from it all)
you have the right to an attorney
(your right to life doesn’t concern me)
if you can’t afford an attorney, one will be provided to you
(if you don’t look deserving, lead may go flying through you)
do you understand the rights i just read to you?
(good, my friends will be by to arrest what’s left of you)

[chorus: resnate]
another body in the street, k!ller verified
you can’t run from, the armed & terrified
another body in the street, k!ller verified
judge, jury, executioner, enterprise
another body in the street, k!ller verified
i can’t breathe, i can’t breathe
another body in the street, k!ller verified
by officers of the law, the armed & terrified

[verse 1: resnate]
all these body cams, the new slasher movie
you got your gun and car
now you’re at war, on active duty
absolute power corrupts absolutely
gave you god mode and we’re surprised you can’t stop shooting?
can’t judge books by their cover
but you spot crooks by their color
sure would be nice all offenders could look like each other
but looks can be deceiving
some officers could be mistook
for someone who may want to keep you breathing
and looks can be condemning
what else explains running away
as a just cause for someone’s life ending?
i struggle with this overwhelming feeling inside of me
bearing witness to all of these executions via police
i swear it’s the closest thing to hate i’ve ever felt
fired 49 sh~lls, just to defend himself?
you unnerve and oppress as if to purge and repress
is that really what it means to serve and protect?
[chorus: resnate]
another body in the street, k!ller verified
you can’t run from, the armed & terrified
another body in the street, k!ller verified
judge, jury, executioner, enterprise
another body in the street, k!ller verified
i can’t breathe, i can’t breathe
another body in the street, k!ller verified
by officers of the law, the armed & terrified

[verse 2: resnate]
i can’t ignore, i can’t forget
cuz i know it ain’t right
to put the unarmed in the ground
how you sleep at night?
while you binge watchin’, eatin’ dinner, living your life
shattered families can’t grieve in peace
drafted soldiers for civil rights
another father, mother, sister, or brother ain’t comin’ home
slaughtered by the powerful
later forgotten, then condoned
each acquittal shows just how little their lives are worth
forced to argue they matter
with slogans on signs and shirts
you let k!llers walk, condemn the riots that ensue
i guess with violence
we should do what you say not what you do
if only courts could do the right thing
but they ain’t done it yet
protecting those who already got bulletproof vests
so armed with immunity
and guns filled with bullets
it’s no wonder your subconscious fear
will trigger you to pull it
and so full clips are emptied before any thought
the fruits of a generation that was raised watching c.o.p.s
bad boys, bad boys, (ha!) what ya gonna do?
what ya gonna do when they come put an end to you?
bad boys, bad boys, (ha!) what ya gonna do?
what you gonna do when they come sn~tch a life or 2?
by allowing some to proceed and k!ll with impunity
there’s no trust
no hope to build a community
some people claim it’s anger or rage
i’m not so sure
it’s not like soldiers have to hate each other to be at war
stereo~type~casting
unfair depictions
entertainment creating real fear
from works of fiction
so those with guns feel threatened by a darker complexion
with or without a weapon
violence is what you’re expecting
you’re running into these encounters
afraid, scared to die
equipped with preconceptions
ready to kick ass and take lives
but we let it slide
enable murderers in disguise
prisons and graves
the products of the armed & terrified
[chorus: resnate]
another body in the street, k!ller verified
you can’t run from, the armed & terrified
another body in the street, k!ller verified
judge, jury, executioner, enterprise
another body in the street, k!ller verified
i can’t breathe, i can’t breathe
another body in the street, k!ller verified
by officers of the law, the armed & terrified
