Everyone Has A Story (FTP)
I know this one swine
A onetime that I’ll never forget
From this one time when
We got pulled over for no good reason
I’mma make this fictitious tale real son
Can’t be in Westwood bald at night in a nice car
He mean mugged us and made his move
Dude was on one with something on his mind
That he had to prove,
Fucking aint right but that night we were on his block
Lights came on and we were told to stop
Being stared at by student faces that all seemed white
Sat our asses on the curve
The nerve of this power trippin punk
Trick ass foo didn’t even ask if he could pop the trunk
This officer of the peace this law breaking chump
Was just doing his job,
Didn’t even mention anything about probable cause
No rights read and instead there we sat
Watching him take our stashed sack
Who’s the teacher who’s the clown
Us being pulled over? Or the fact that
The swine searching us was brown?
I know this one swine
A onetime that I’ll never forget
From this one time when I told a cop,
Watch one day as you go about your business
You’ll bear will witness
The power of hood accountability
How in certain communities observing
You is our responsibility, looked at me
Already wanting to check I.D.
I said I’m simply implying that
You being an agent of the law
Gives us the right to oversee
What you do, that shouldn’t be something new
But that foo wasn’t having it
He was no longer just being entertained
So I had to ask straight up if I was being detained
He said I wasn’t so I peddled away
Next thing I know I see the car search light
Pointed in my direction
You mean to tell me I can’t even ride
my bike in peace at night without raising suspicion?
The situation seemed silly yet was serious as can be
Get off the bike! And I’m like, “Yo… seriously?”
Next thing I know my face is on the floor
Asking if I have a rap sheet, and me asking
Why I have to be chest down on the concrete
Back then no one was around to make sure
Protocol and procedures were taken
But for that swine that I remember from that one time
I say, Cop Watch the neighborhood observes
Especially at night and we reserve the right
To make sure there’s community oversight
Because there will always be a swine
that reminds me of a onetime that I met this one time
that constantly loves to purposely step out of line
on the beat acting all like, “The World Is Mine”
No, that’s not how it’s going to go
when you step out of line we’ll be there
to let you know, you’re under the scrutiny of the people
not afraid to expose your hidden evils
so watch cop don’t trip if you get caught slipping by
you’re neighborhood cop watch
More than a camera it’s an effective tool
New school method of accountability
To measure your capability to serve and protect
So step off, do your job and show some respect
They’re just there to make sure you’re crooked ass
comes correct
