KRS-One - Sound of da Police
[Produced by Showbiz]
[Chorus]
(Woop, woop) That's the sound of da police
(Woop, woop) That's the sound of da beast
(Woop, woop) That's the sound of da police
(Woop, woop) That's the sound of da beast (Yes, indeed)
(Woop, woop) That's the sound of da police
(Woop, woop) That's the sound of da beast
(Woop, woop) That's the sound of da police
(Woop, woop) That's the sound of da beast (Yes, indeed)
[Verse 1]
Stand clear, don man'll talk
You can't stand where I stand, you can't walk where I walk
Watch out, we run New York
Policeman come, we bust him out the park
I know this for a fact, you don't like how I act
You claim I'm sellin' crack, but you be doin' that
I'd rather say "See ya" 'cause I would never be ya
Be an officer? You wicked overseer
You hotshot, wanna get props and be a savior?
First show a little respect, change your behavior
Change your attitude, change your plan
There could never really be justice on stolen land
Are you really for peace and equality?
Or when my car is hooked up, you know you wanna follow me
Your laws are minimal
'Cause you won't even think about lookin' at the real criminal
This has got to cease
'Cause we be gettin' hyped to the sound of da police
[Chorus]
(Woop, woop) That's the sound of da police
(Woop, woop) That's the sound of da beast
(Woop, woop) That's the sound of da police
(Woop, woop) That's the sound of da beast
[Verse 2]
Now here's a likkle truth, open up your eye
While you're checkin' out the boom-bap, check the exercise
Take the word "overseer," like a sample
Repeat it very quickly in a crew, for example
Overseer, overseer, overseer, overseer
Officer, officer, officer, officer
Yeah, officer from overseer
You need a little clarity? Check the similarity
The overseer rode around the plantation
The officer is off, patrollin' all the nation
The overseer could stop you, "What you're doin'?"
The officer will pull you over just when he's pursuin'
The overseer had the right to get ill
And if you fought back, the overseer had the right to kill
The officer has the right to arrest
And if you fight back, they put a hole in your chest
(Woop) They both ride horses
After four hundred years, I've got no choices
The police, dem have a likkle gun
So when I'm on the streets, I walk around with a bigger one
(Woop, woop) I hear it all day
Just so they can run the light and be upon their way
[Break]
[Chorus]
(Woop, woop) That's the sound of da police
(Woop, woop) That's the sound of da beast
(Woop, woop) That's the sound of da police
(Woop, woop) That's the sound of da beast
[Verse 3]
Check out the message in a rough stylee
The real criminal are the C-O-P
You check for undercover and the one D-T
But just a mere Black man, dem wan check me
Dem check out me car, for it shine like the sun
But dem jealous or dem vexed 'cause dem can't afford one
Black people still slaves up to today
But the Black police officer nyah see it that way
Him want a salary, him want it
So he put on a badge and kill people for it
My grandfather had to deal with the cops
My great-grandfather dealt with the cops
My great-grandfather had to deal with the cops
And then my great-great-great-great—, when it's gonna stop?!
[Chorus]
(Woop, woop) That's the sound of da police
(Woop, woop) That's the sound of da beast
(Woop, woop) That's the sound of da police
(Woop, woop) That's the sound of da beast
(Woop, woop) That's the sound of da police
(Woop, woop) That's the sound of da beast
(Woop, woop) That's the sound of da police
(Woop, woop) That's the sound of da beast
[Break]
[Chorus]
(Woop, woop) That's the sound of da police
(Woop, woop) That's the sound of da beast
(Woop, woop) That's the sound of da police
(Woop, woop) That's the sound of da beast
[Chorus]
(Woop, woop) That's the sound of da police
(Woop, woop) That's the sound of da beast
(Woop, woop) That's the sound of da police
(Woop, woop) That's the sound of da beast (Yes, indeed)
(Woop, woop) That's the sound of da police
(Woop, woop) That's the sound of da beast
(Woop, woop) That's the sound of da police
