Lyrical Analysis of...
Untitled Song
- Aight, heads up: this is raw, political, 90s coded, no fairy dust. No cartoon cops, no fake bars. Let’s go.
- **INTRO (Spoken, low vinyl hiss)**
- West coast static, sirens in the distance
- Not a threat, just a mirror
- History talkin’, beat knockin’
- If it sting, that’s accountability, not hate
- **VERSE ONE (24 lines)**
- I spit case law over basslines, truth in the cadence
- Badge got amnesia, memory selective and vacant
- From slave patrol footnotes to modern containment
- Same road, new cruisers, same fear arrangement
- They call it “procedure” when the bruises look patterned
- Paperwork thicker than the skulls that got fractured
- Miranda read fast, rights turn abstracted
- Justice move slow when the melanin’s active
- Broken tail light, now it’s felony math
- Probable cause equals pigment plus past
- They say “few bad apples,” ignore the whole batch
- Union seals rot, keeps the stench intact
- Redlining the map, then patrol where you starved us
- Crime stats cooked by the routes where you parked us
- Quotas ain’t written but the numbers stay marching
- Stop and frisk lottery, odds ain’t impartial
- They fear the block speaking history uncensored
- So they gas the crowd, then call it “deterrence”
- I rap civics class, no gun in the sentence
- If this sounds like anger, nah—this is remembrance
- **INTERLUDE (News clip flip)**
- “Officer cleared of all wrongdoing.”
- —cleared like a chalkboard, erased like a name—
- **VERSE TWO (25 lines)**
- Let’s talk language, how power brands pain
- That word they threw to dehumanize chains
- Now debated in classrooms, reclaimed in the street
- Still dangerous in mouths that don’t carry the heat
- Context matter heavy, history weigh tons
- You don’t inherit the pain just by saying the tongue
- They used it as policy, whip crack grammar
- Reduced human beings to capital grammar
- Then wonder why trust don’t magically form
- When every patrol car feel like a storm
- They plant informants, then point at the harvest
- Promote certain crimes, then act deeply astonished
- COINTEL playbooks, community fracture
- Create the conditions, then broadcast the capture
- “Why don’t you comply?” like nerves ain’t alive
- When the ground got names that never survived
- Hands up, camera on, still a roll of the dice
- Body cam blink once, truth paying the price
- I’m not anti safety, I’m anti selective
- Law should be law, not perspective
- If justice was blind, why it squint at my skin?
- Why punishment doubled when the shade settle in?
- **INTERLUDE (DJ cut)**
- *rewind*
- “This is for the reports that never got filed.”
- **VERSE THREE (24 lines)**
- They say respect is earned, but demand it on sight
- While rolling deep, armed up, claiming “fear for my life”
- Fear been racialized, weaponized logic
- Turned into headlines, rinse, repeat, profit
- Tax dollars fund trauma, then therapy denied
- Tell us “vote harder” while the cases all slide
- Qualified immunity, god mode cheat
- While civilians get sentenced for missing a beat
- The war on drugs wasn’t drugs, it was borders
- Of race and class drawn by suits and orders
- Same powder, different zip, different fate
- One get rehab, one get booked by the state
- I don’t want revenge, I want ledgers corrected
- Names remembered, patterns inspected
- Training that teaches de escalation for real
- Not warrior myths and a hair trigger feel
- If the shoe fit truth, let it scuff up the floor
- This ain’t anti cop—it’s anti what you ignore
- I end where I started, with history loud
- If the system feels dissed, that’s the echo of now
- **OUTRO (Spoken, beat fading)**
- No threats. No fantasies.
- Just receipts, rhythm, and a refusal to forget.
- West coast.
- Truth coast.
