lyrics

The only laws I follow
I follow 'cause I believe
I don't need some asshole in a uniform to tell me
And it's cause I'm lucky
I have the privilege to share
My little acts of meaningless resistance

The cops, they pay me no mid
I guess I'm not brown enough to fuck with
To the people that I love
The best that I can say
We don't need them
Make your own laws

And if you're a cop
Get some sense
Quit your job

I know talking shit
Ain't enough to save a life
"If singing changed anything they'd make it illegal"
I just want to try
To put the thought in people's minds
Nothing's gonna change with all this apathy

The cops they've called our bluff
A protest doesn't work when we half ass it
To the people that I love
The best that I can say
We don't need them
But we sure need each other

Oh to the people that I love
The best that I can say
Plant your gardens 'til they're full
Give your cash 'til you can't pay
Make some new laws for yourself
Ones that keep eachother safe
We don't need radicals
We need everybody, every fucking day

And if you're a cop
Get some sense
Quit your job
