Woop, woop, that's the sound of da police Woop, woop, that's the sound of da beast
Woop, woop, that's the sound of da police Woop, woop, that's the sound of da beast
Yes, indeed
Woop, woop, that's the sound of da police Woop, woop, that's the sound of da beast
Woop, woop, that's the sound of da police Woop, woop, that's the sound of da beast
Stand clear, don' man a talk, you can't stand where I stand
You can't walk where I walk, watch out, we run New York
Police man come, we bust him out the park I know this for a fact, you don't like how
I act You claim I'm sellin' crack but you be doin'
that I'd rather say "See ya" 'cause I would never
be ya Be a officer? You wicked overseer
Ya hotshot, wanna get props and be a saviour First show a little respect, change your behavior
Change your attitude, change your plan There could never really be justice on stolen
land
Are you really for peace and equality? Or when my car is hooked up
You know you wanna follow me, your laws are minimal
'Cause you won't even think about lookin' at the real criminal
This has got to cease 'Cause we be getting hyped to the sound of
da police
Woop, woop, that's the sound of da police Woop, woop, that's the sound of da beast
Woop, woop, that's the sound of da police Woop, woop, that's the sound of da beast
Now, here's a likkle truth open up your eye While you're checking out the boom box, check
officer from overseer You need a little clarity? Check the similarity
The overseer rode around the plantation The officer is off patroling all the nation
The overseer couldn't stop you what you're doing
The officer will pull you over just when he's pursuing
The overseer had the right to get ill And if you fought back, the overseer had the
The officer has the right to arrest And if you fight back they put a hole in your
chest Woop, they both ride horses
After 400 years, I've got no choices
The police them have a little gun So when I'm on the streets, I walk around
with a bigger one Woop, woop, I hear it all day
Just so they can run the light and be upon their way
Yes, indeed Yes, indeed
Yes, indeed Yes, indeed
Woop, woop, that's the sound of da police Woop, woop, that's the sound of da beast
Woop, woop, that's the sound of da police Woop, woop, that's the sound of da beast
Check out the message in a rough stylee The real criminals are the COP
You check for undercover and the one PD But just a mere Black man, them want check
me Them check out me car for it shine like the
sun But them jealous or them vexed 'cause them
can't afford one
Black people still slaves up 'til today But the Black police officer nah see it that
way Him want a salary, him want it
So he put on a badge and kill people for it
My grandfather had to deal with the cops My great-grandfather dealt with the cops
My great-grandfather had to deal with the cops
And then my great, great, great, great, when it's gonna stop?
