They Don't Care About Us

Preview Full Track

Skin head, dead head, everybody gone bad,
Situation, aggravation, everybody allegation
In the suite, on the news, everybody dog food
Bang bang, shock dead, everybody's gone mad
All I wanna say is that, they don't really care about us
All I wanna say is that, they don't really care about us
Beat me, hate me, you can never break me
Will me, thrill me, you can never kill me
Do me, sue me, everybody do me
Kick me, strike me, Don't you black or white me
All I wanna say is that, they don't really care about us
All I wanna say is that, they don't really care about us
Tell me what has become of my life, I have a wife and two children who love me
I am the victim of police brutality now,
I'm tired of bein' the victim of hate
You're rapin' me of my pride, Oh, for God's sake
I look to heaven to fulfill its prophecy..., Set me free
Skin head, dead head, everybody gone bad
trepidation, speculation, everybody allegation
In the suite, on the news, everybody dog food
black man, black mail, throw your brother in jail
All I wanna say is that, they don't really care about us
All I wanna say is that, they don't really care about us
Tell me what has become of my rights,
Am I invisible because you ignore me?
Your proclamation promised me free liberty, now
I'm tired of bein' the victim of shame
They're throwing me in a class with a bad name
I can't believe this is the land from which I came
You know I do really hate to say it
The government don't wanna see
But if Roosevelt was livin', he wouldn't let this be, no, no
Skin head, dead head, everybody gone bad
Situation, speculation, everybody litigation
Beat me, bash me, you can never trash me
Hit me, kick me, you can never get me
All I wanna say is that, they don't really care about us
All I wanna say is that, they don't really care about us

Some things in life they just don't wanna see
But if Martin Luther was livin', he wouldn't let this be
Skin head, dead head, everybody gone bad
Situation, segregation, everybody allegation
In the suite, on the news, everybody dog food
Kick me, strike me, don't you wrong or right me
All I wanna say is that, they don't really care about us
All I wanna say is that, they don't really care about us
All I wanna say is that, they don't really care about us
All I wanna say is that, they don't really care about us
All I wanna say is that, they don't really care about us
