    Thank the police comin’ straight from the sub-burbs
    A young con got it good 'cause I’m white
    But not the other color, so police think
    They have the authority to kill a minority
    Eff that shit, 'cause they ain’t the one
    For bad police officers with a badge and a gun
    To be beating them and throwing in jail
    They can go toe-to-toe in the middle of a cell
    Effin’ with them 'cause they’re a teenager
    With a little bit a gold and a sneaker
    Searchin’ their car, lookin’ for the product
    Thinkin’ every black guy is sellin’ narcotics
    They’d rather see them in the pen
    Than them and Lorenzo rollin’ in a Benz-o
    Beat a POC out of shape
    And when dey finished - bring the yellow tape

    Okay, now that I have your kind attention let’s talk about realistic police reform. We can do this! Oh, right - I forgot! Oops! Thank you to rights holders of the song Eff tha Police for granting us usage permission. Where was I?..
