Shoot Back (dear Officer) Lyrics - Kxng Crooked

[Intro: KXNG CROOKED] 

{New-born citizens. You have violated the anti-protest coordinates. We are authorized to use deadly force. We are authorized to use deadly force. You have violated the anti-protest coordinates. We are authorized to use deadly force.} 

Once upon a time in the slums a group of people stood up to a corrupt system. And they were all slaughtered. So what did the next generation do? Shoot back 

[Hook: KXNG CROOKED] 

To the police, what kind of beast do you have to become 

To kill a child so young? He was just having some fun 

Dear officer, would you shoot if that was your son? 

You pull us over, now we contemplating capital one 

You shoot me in my back and plant a weapon after it's done 

How much time you get for killing me? The answer is none 

You ain't from around here 

So why don't you just go back where you're from? 

[Interlude] 

Two little boys came and knocked on my door and said, "the police just shot your son twice in his stomach". So my..

[Verse 1: KXNG CROOKED] 

Hey, yo, them robocops just tear-gassed a protest 

And you don't wanna fight back 

Congratulations, my nigga, you passed the hoe test 

Just another male in need of some Kotex 

You'll be fitted for the rope next 

They gon' hang you up just like coat checks 

They killed your people in front of you, what you wanna do? 

You already know what I'm gonna do, pick up a gun or two 

You picking up your sneakers like runners do, but where you running to? 

Ain't nowhere to hide when your own cowardice is hunting you 

Take a look at yourself, man, your mirror got the W 

You got the L, you motherfucker you 

We was sitting in church praying the Lord may forgive us 

But an agent of the puppet master was there praying with us 

Little did we know this disloyal snake was coiled on our own grass, plotting on different ways he could kill us 

Then he walked to his vehicle, came back and sprayed major pillars of the community 

The act was a lunacy 

He knew just what he was doing, true indeed 

He was carrying out a mission to kill you or me 

Mission accomplished to a tee 

Unity and all the hope it brings 

Just became a nightmare in the reflection of our broken dreams 

See, we welcomed you with open arms then you opened fire 

So it seems we can't trust a soul by no means, nah 

The enemies out here training to hold his chopper right 

Meanwhile shooting at each other, that taught us how to fight 

Damn shame we put each other under the doctor's knife 

In surgery fighting for this punk-ass shit we call our life 

We supposed to be smoking them robocops 

That'll make the big picture look better like photoshop 

I know you hope it stop, I know it's not, I'm loading shots 

In a .357 three minutes before 4 O'clock 

I know, to keep a gun in my waist, never fearing snakes 

Tears dried up on my face, my spirit aches 

Sitting here in wakes for people who irreplacable 

We get bad luck whether the mirrors breaks or not 

Imagine coming fresh out the womb 

And the system already got your name written across your tomb 

You a flower, you just wanna bloom 

Unassuming that the government's mad villains, them MF'ers want your doom 

So you're disproportionally incarcerated 

After all these years, still the most hated

How much time you get for killing me? The answer is none 

You ain't from around here 

So why don't you back where you're from? 

[Outro: Tech N9ne] 

If you ain't a rebel you ain't shit. If you ain't fight the love of your family, what the fuck are you here for? If you ain't gripping and grinding and building for your loved ones to protect them from the evil people who run this motherfucker, get the fuck out of the way. Real niggas take it [?].
