Mistaken Identity
You really got this one wrong
Racially singled out
He must have a gun
And yet
You get
Off with
No time
How can this be the answer?
No crime yet they shot away
He now lies dead
The blood is on your hands
Hands which were supposed to protect
People like the man you blew away
This isn't justice, this is corruption
[Chorus]
The four protectors fired fourty one shots
Hitting him nineteen times
Searching the body there were no weapons found
He lies with all who died in vain
Murder must still be a crime
When our inherent freedom
Is hatefully gunned down
By who we trust
And yet
You get
Off with
No time
How can this be the answer?
No crime yet they shot away
He now lies dead
Blood is on your hands
Hands which were supposed to protect
People like the man you blew away
This isn't justice, this is corruption
[Chorus]
The four protectors fired fourty one shots
Hitting him nineteen times
Searching the body there were no weapons found
He lies with all who died in vain
How can this be the answer?
No crime yet they shot away
He now lies dead
Blood is on your hands
Hands which were supposed to protect
People like the man you blew away
This isn't justice, this is corruption
[Chorus]
The four protectors fired fourty one shots
Hitting him nineteen times
Searching the body there were no weapons found
He lies with all who died in vain

This song is describing a very touchy and real event that is definently an issue in our society today, not just in this particular case but in general. This song has a very powerful impact to my ears and I cant believe anon would call it shit thats just retarded obviously you dont understand the lyrics or are just plain stupid.

Hey, Anonymous, the song is about the murder of Amadou Diallo, a 23-year-old immigrant who was shot by 4 cops shooting a total of 41 rounds and was hit 19 times. He was unarmed.
A great song in my book - I don't know what your standards for a rock song are. I doubt you even listen to music.
