The names are said but no one listens
Happened 1 too many times,
People march, but they don’t know what for
They promote transparency but we can’t see through it
1 step forwards is 2 steps backwards
We see it on the news,
But don’t see half of it
Where badges are like vaccines
Making people immune to the law
Windows get smashed
Buildings get burned
Of people who think the same
But who is to blame
