By: Cedric McClester This ain’t another American Pie Where the story’s protagonists happens to die This is more a question of wondering why Equal justice in most cases isn’t applied Every time an unarmed victim is killed by a cop Whose response to the circumstance is over the top You can hear as the bullets go pop pop pop It’s a head scratcher wondering will it ever stop It’s a head scratcher Why those headlines staring at cha Always seems to catch cha By complete surprise It’s a mind-bender Why the public’s defender Always seems to surrender When it comes to those guys Some prove the lie By trying to apply a religion they deny As the reason why The innocent must die ‘Cos if they took a look Their own Holy Book Condemns the actions that they took So in hell they’re gonna cook It’s a head scratcher Why those headlines staring at cha Always seems to catch cha By complete surprise It’s a mind-bender Why the public’s defender Always seems to surrender When it comes to those guys He’s guilty on all counts Which logically amounts If the jurors choose to pounce To death with no discounts He deserves to die And it’s obvious why If he’s gonna have to fry It’s too late for him to cry It’s a head scratcher Why those headlines staring at cha Always seems to catch cha By complete surprise It’s a mind-bender Why the public’s defender Always seems to surrender When it comes to those guys Thanks to the rapper Jay-Z Who doesn’t want us streaming free We won’t be able to ya see If we wanna hear Queen B Or that girl Rihanna (c) Copyright 2015, Cedric McClester.
