lyrics

Way up north in the land of lakes
My grandma had her daughter there and she did the same
Winter's cold but the summers are tame
Another town with a stolen name

Police cars on the promenade
"This ain't a protest people, this a parade"
Easy thing for you to say
Easy way to shift the blame

They terrorize the poor and the black and the brown
Just so the rich folks can get downtown
Buy a new sports car to drive around
Diamond watches, designer gowns

They'll take your labor, they'll take your land
Sell your crops to the middle man
While the thin blue line lends a helping hand
And tells you that your enemies are poor and black

I look around and it's clear to me
The white man's money and his property
Matter more than where he puts his knee
In the name of old glory
