The Jury’s Out – The Fix is in
The Decks are stacked so the Bad Guys Win
White Police Patrolmen on the Street
Provoke the Black Folks that they meet
Writing Traffic Tickets – make them pay the fines
They’re a source of revenue between the color lines
Another precious life is gone
The Urban Battlefield moves on
Tear gas and tanks helmets and guns
Days of Law Order while Darren Wilson’s on the run
The Jury’s out – the fix is in
The Decks are stacked so the bad guys win
Prosecuting Attorney [McCulloch] could indict
But he didn’t put up a fight
Systematic hatred in a factory of fear
Passed the buck to the Grand Jury his intent is oh so clear
The Jury’s out – the fix is in
The Decks are stacked so the bad guys win
