IF THERE WERE NO POLICE (2026)

If there were no police
There would be more peace
No more violent deceased
The violence would cease
This ain’t fantasy
It’s fact
With their feet on our back
The pigs are the ones
Holding us back
Cuz we Black
Flooded our hoods with crack
Keep the Brown down
Instigating separation
Leaving our communities in devastation
Gunning our young down
The source of fentanyl pills meth
They the ones who jack us up
All forms of chemical death
They the ones who back us up
Into corners
From city to cell blocks
We don’t need cops
They’re the real ops
So long as they’re here
The chaos won’t stop
Push them out
So we can ALL rise to the top
Find common ground
Love without bounds
How that sound?
A new order of things
Where people get along
And they can fix their wrongs
From the old to the young
Tall to stout
Fuck the police!
Get the hell out!
Their sole role is control
To keep our heads ducked down
In a hole
Or dotting the landscape
Up on poles
Looking for the true terrorists
The boys in blue
There it is
They’re the cause of our problems
They’ve never solved them
Making war on the poor
Our lives plain shitty
And now the wanna build
Whole cop cities
Manipulators
Instigators
Infiltrators
Agitators
When problems arise
They show up way later
Inciting gang wars
Create crime then kick in doors
They’ll entrap you then slap you
Down on all fours
They’re no one’s friend
Officer Friendly only shows up when
They’re trying to mend
Fences and bridges
They done burned
Erase the lessons
We done learned
Pigs can’t be trusted
It’s damage control
The carrot and stick
Their game is old
If there were no police
We wouldn’t live in fear
We’d have security manned
By the people who live right here
With safe spaces where our kids could play
Old folks could stay
On their stoops
Like back in the day
Late into the night
Kids having fun
Not a worry in sight
Not busting guns
Beneath street lights
If there were no cops
The hood would be grand
And we could stand
United as one
Like a colony of ants
Where the young have a chance
To grow old and wise
Not being sold on lies
About hero pigs
Soldiers moles and spies
The people are the heroes
Police are zeroes
Cut them out of the equation
And we’d live near to
A real utopia
Like the South generations ago
Where Black folks didn’t lock doors
And everybody tended to each other
And meant it
When they called you sister and brother
Wasn’t no cops in our space
Trying to keep us in our place
So it’s a lie
We can’t keep peace
If they weren’t here
The conflicts would cease
We could live our lives whole
And at ease
THAT’S how it would be
If there were no police
