Fool's Errand - Innocent Man

No hope, no say
Resist arrest?
No way

No faith, it won't cease
With no justice
There's no peace

And we can't keep going on this way
Cuz the cops killed an innocent man today
They don't care what kinda message it might send
Another headline of a wasted life and
They're gonna get away with it again

With no rights, we won't advance
With no money, you've got no chance

No consequences, his heart stopped
Killers in blue, ain't no cops

And we can't keep going on this way
'Cuz the cops killed an innocent man today
Wasn't running from the scene of a crime
He was running for his life this time
Out in the streets there's gonna be hell to pay

Protect and serve, their battle cry
Our trust and faith in the law dies
Makes us all feel like something's gone wrong
This time they've lost all our respect
They've sunk as low as they can get
Redemption just seems so far gone

And we can't keep going on this way
Something in that system's gotta change
You're outraged when they burn the block
And we know it can't be every cop but
We also know this has got to stop
