Network news media is biased. Well, no news there. (pun intended)
The line between over enthusiastic police and rebellious protestors is
often slanted to promote the views of the media portraying the subject. It is with this in mind that this song was written.

Verse
You have your chaos and oppression
It's now in season, bring your weapons
The media is ready to follow you
Reporting the violence that you do

On the streets it's another day
Celebrating urban decay
The cancer spreads and it's time to pay
For the repression since the days of blue and grey

A military mind, a badge that shines
Dispensing justice at the scene of the crime
A split second decision needs to be made
Profiling time, go join the parade

Politics and justice bounce like a basket ball
When you have a need for protection
Who do you call?
Twisted half truths come out of mouths
On both sides of the issue
Another camera shot of a mother
With a tissue
