The lyric of Outbreak, Anti Flag's song A black man driving down the street one day Pulled over by racist boys in blue in Brentwood, PA There s no real reason, they don t have any right It s just that in their eyes he s not the correct shade of white... Driving in a neighborhood that s reigned by whites Ain t healthy for a black man trying to live a lengthy life All those cops they walked off free, but him he s in a grave His name is Johnny Gammage, on of thousands they have slain We ve got no rights.... ... when cops can kill It s not right.... ... we live in fear Patrol man cruising in his car at night Just looking for some homeys he can rough up in a fight Pulled over 3 kids in a total rage Next thing you know there s bodies all over the place His back up came & they re all acting tough 3 kids vs. 6 or 7 cops all armed with billy clubs The cops they did it just cause those kids color and their age They say "that s not the truth", but this happens every fucking day!!! We ve got no right. .... ... when cops can kill It s not right... ... we live in fear Fear of what you re gonna do, when a cop s talking shit to you Fear of what you re gonna say, when the cops come gunning your way Fear of what you shouldn t do, when the cops try to provoke you Fear that on any given day, the cops should take your life away... They say they re here to keep the peace... WHAT A BUNCH OF FUCKIN SHIT!!!!!! We ve got no rights.... ... when cops can kill It s not right... .... ... we live in fear TAKE BACK YOUR RIGHTS!!!
