In Memoriam: Jayland Walker's Sixty Bullet Wounds

 

 

 

Call It What It Is
By: Ben Harper

They shot him in the back
Now it's a crime to be black
So don't act surprised
When it gets vandalized
Call it what it is
Call it what it is
Call it what it is
Murder

There's good cops
Bad cops
White cops
Black cops
Call it what it is
Call it what it is
Call it what it is
Murder

Trayvon Martin
Ezell Ford
Michael Brown
And so many more
Call it what it is
Call it what it is
Call it what it is
Murder
Murder

Government
Ain't easy
Policing
Ain't easy
Hard times
Ain't easy
Oppression
Ain't easy
Racism
Ain't easy
Fear
Ain't easy
Suffering
Ain't easy
Call it what it is
Call it what it is
Call it what it is
Murder
Murder

Gun control
Mind control
Self-control
We've dug ourselves a hole
Call it what it is
Call it what it is
Call it what it is
Murder

Call it what it is
Call it what it is
Call it what it is
Murder

Call it what it is
Call it what it is
Call it what it is
 

 
Something to consider, ponder, ruminate over while you're waving your flags and lighting off your fireworks... 

When was the last time a white dude running from the five-o got shot 60 times? 
 
Call it what it is.
