"The People That Protect Us" lyrics

"The People That Protect Us"

Tales to spin
Scraping the skin
Planting a way for incident
Oh, there's always a motive we can't get around

Forcing the pieces
Lies awry, no alibi
Framing the needed agenda
Choosing how to stun
These are the ones paid to protect us!

This is my cry for redemption
You owe me this, you owe me this
When we call them out and sort through the fiction
They silence it, it's over with
Now he's stuck in the concrete
And we won't get him out
Losing time that will never come back
Jurisdiction games scream your name
Appointed crooks never get caught, never get caught

What better way to camouflage?
What better way to camouflage?

Forcing the pieces
Lies awry, no alibi
Faking the needed protocol
Circumvent the law
Living in a state of fear for life

That's where the problem lies
Justice system fabricated
"Just us" system
They're swearing on a book of verses
That's supposed to make it true?
They're lying
And the devil was the state's design

How many are tainted?
Justice system fabricated
"Just us" system
How many are tainted?
Justice system fabricated
"Just us" system

This is our cry for redemption
You owe me this, you owe me this
When we call them out that makes them nervous
They silence it, it's over with
Now he's stuck in the concrete
And we won't get him out
Losing time that will never come back
Jurisdiction games scream your name
Appointed crooks never get caught, never get caught

What better way to camouflage?
What better way to camouflage?
