| 50 Cent Curtis Officer Down When reason dies behind closed doors Face down in a cell in a pool of piss It's time to fear what we should respect It's time to question cause and effect Striking with impunity Hiding behind flags of immunity When corruption rears its ugly head The force of law becomes a farce Personal ambition usurps justice The rich protected at the expense of the poor Would you sit on the fence, take no chance? As those batons fall, turn a blind eye In an ideal world There'd be no need for law No need for police But in a society so sick So obsessed with blind greed Someone has to protect The old and the weak Officer down Can we really afford to be so selectively blind? If we dig too deep what would we find? At authority's heart beats a dollar sign Under such a regime we're all doing time Striking with impunity Hiding behind flags of immunity Never say, you weren't warned When they come to drag you away To silence the dissident hiding in us all They clench the fist of ordained might From which side of the barbed wire Do you want to see your life pass by? When reason dies behind closed doors Face down in a cell in a pool of piss It's time to fear what we should respect It's time to question Cause and effect Who teaches the teachers? Who makes laws for lawmakers? When they read us our rights What about human rights? |
