Pig Latin
Gym Class Heroes Lyrics

Why do people fear what they don't know?
Why are people afraid of things they are unfamiliar with?

Constantly lookin' at me funny cause my pants swung low
People constantly judge and give me dirty looks because my pants are sagging

And my hats rocked to the left
And I wear my hat tilted to the left

All these dirty looks be gettin me stressed
All the negative attention I receive is causing me stress

It's time to dead that
It's time to put an end to that

Testify and get your head wrapped like Arabian cats
Speak the truth and face consequences like oppressed individuals

Terrorist act's will have you pigs squealin at last
Rebellious acts will make corrupt authorities finally suffer

Wayne County Jail full of noxious gas
The jail system is filled with toxic and oppressive conditions

Got three quarters of your senses massed
You are left with only a limited sense of touch like Tony

You're left with only the sense of Touch like Tony
You're left with only the physical sense of touch, similar to someone named Tony

The majority of these boys in blue are phony
The majority of police officers are dishonest and deceitful

Crooked like Saint Ides, instead of tryin to save lives
Dishonest and corrupt, prioritizing personal gain rather than protecting lives

They out for delph, only tryin to help them self
They are motivated by money and only try to benefit themselves

They pull me over talkin about a seatbelt, we all know thats bullshit
They pull me over and claim it's because of a seatbelt violation, but we know it's a lie

The fact is I look suspicious, THATS IT!!
The truth is, they consider me suspicious, and that's the only reason

Type of kid to expose corruption, like crop circles and alien abductions
I am the kind of person who reveals and uncovers corruption, like conspiracy theories

Park patrolling toy cop reproductions
Police officers patrolling the park are like insignificant, ineffective replicas of real cops

Hunger for power equals negative reprocussions
Desire for power leads to harmful consequences

Get rushed as if I was rushin with no discussion
They physically attack and subdue me as if I was engaging in a physical altercation without any communication

Try and cuff me and catch a mild concussion
They attempt to handcuff me and end up causing me a minor head injury

I've taken all the stress I can
I have reached my limit of tolerating stress

Peace America I'm movin off to foreign lands
I am leaving America and seeking peace in another country

Where cops don't place narcotics in innocent hands
Where police officers do not plant drugs on innocent people

Framin cats just to meet a quota
Falsely accusing individuals to fulfill a set target

Searchin' everyone with baggy pants and Moterola's
Targeting and searching people wearing baggy pants and carrying Motorola phones

Thats why I'm wild with a camcorder
That's why I am rebellious and always carry a camcorder

To catch 'em slippin when they pull me over
To catch them making mistakes when they stop me

Flip 'em the bird then I'm ghost in my Toyota
Give them the middle finger, then quickly leave in my Toyota

Won't stop writin til this shit cease
I will continue writing until this injustice ends

Until someone's there to police the police
Until there is someone to monitor and hold the police accountable

I'm sick of all this everyday harassment
I am tired of enduring constant mistreatment

(Sick of hopelessly watchin my man gettin his ass kicked, sick of being Followed shit is drastic)
(Tired of helplessly witnessing my friend being beaten, tired of being followed, the situation is severe)

Sick of havin visions of black caskets
Tired of having fearful thoughts of black coffins

(just because we rock our pants low)
(simply because we wear our pants saggy)

And our hats backwards
And we wear our hats turned backward

(These cops is like cancer)
(These police officers are like a harmful disease)

A tumor on our ass
Something that is constantly causing harm to us

(We want answers)
(We demand explanations)

For bad manners
For their disrespectful behavior

(And the use of police scanners)
(And their abuse of police scanners)

So we jottin down their numbers
So we write down their badge numbers

(In our pocket planners)
(In our small notebooks)

For the day we meet up (With Jim Shapiro) THE HAMMER!
For the day we gather evidence and present it against them (with lawyer Jim Shapiro as support)

They got this little game that they play
They have this manipulative game that they engage in

Tellin you that you that you done somethin wrong
Accusing you of committing a wrongdoing

Then they flash the badge in your face
Then they show their badge in front of you

And you don't even know what's goin' on
And you don't even understand what is happening

They don't even give you a reasons, orno clue as to what it is you've done
They don't even provide you with a reason or any indication of what you have supposedly done

You go for your registration, and then they put your ass to sleep
You reach for your car registration, and then they physically attack and knock you unconscious

(And tell the chief you reached for heat)
(And falsely claim to the police chief that you were reaching for a weapon)

Cops be poppin' confiscated glocks with a sack of rocks right under it
Police officers always carry hidden weapons and drugs that they have confiscated

The funny thing is, this murders funded by the government
The ironic thing is that these illegal activities are supported by the government

Yo they'll kill you and put the crack in your pocket to make it legal
They will murder you and then plant drugs on you to justify their actions

Illegally plant the confiscated gat right by you in your Regal
They unlawfully place the confiscated firearm next to you in your car

And say you shot first, delete you from digital files its lethal
And claim that you fired the first shot, erase any evidence against them, which can be deadly

Most of these cops is see through, that's why we do what we do
The majority of these police officers are transparently corrupt, and that's why we fight against them

That's why we tell the truth about what police do
That's why we expose the truth regarding the actions of the police

Son they'll issue you a ticket right before they beat you
They will give you a citation just before physically assaulting you

I'm glad the truth scares you, hit me mr.officer I dare you
I am glad that the truth intimidates you, go ahead and hit me, officer, I challenge you

Check the rearview, you'll see the camcorder, extended lens too
Look in the rearview mirror, you will see the camcorder with the extended lens recording everything

You better call for back-up, chew the rest of that crack up
You should call for additional support, and finish consuming the remaining crack cocaine

'Cause we got you on tape with that girl you raped and handcuffed
Because we have recorded evidence of you sexually assaulting and restraining that girl

Yeah you shook now, and if you swing on me I'm about to fight back
Yes, you are now frightened, and if you attempt to attack me, I will defend myself

The man ain't nothin but the klan, but not in white they rockin blue and black
The authority figures are nothing more than a modern form of the Ku Klux Klan, dressed in blue and black uniforms instead of white robes

It's a proven fact cops is just white collared criminals
It is a well-known fact that police officers are just criminals disguised in professional attire

They ride in Crown V's injectin neighborhoods with chemicals
They patrol in Crown Victoria cars, polluting neighborhoods with their corrupt influences

I'm tellin you, it all makes sense they killed the president
I am telling you, it is all connected, they assassinated the president

Sniped him out with one shot then lurked out with all the evidence
They killed him discreetly with a single gunshot, then concealed all the evidence

I'm speakin relevance, ignorant heads won't try to hear me
I am speaking the truth, but close-minded individuals refuse to listen to me

'Cause the truth will make the masses bug out, like Tim Leary
Because the truth will cause a chaotic reaction among the majority, like the influence of Tim Leary's ideas

If you want kids off the streets give us somethin to do
If you want to keep young people away from crime, provide them with activities and opportunities

Instead of constant harassment and curfew's (COME ON)
Instead of continuously harassing them and imposing curfews

Since when did dreadlocks become probable cause
Since when did having dreadlocks become a valid reason for suspicion

Totin' around a backpack become breakin the law
When did carrying a backpack become an illegal act

Son I'm fed up, so get up, stand up like Bob told you
Enough is enough, so rise up and take a stand as Bob Marley advised

And learn some Tai Bo in case they try to choke hold you
And learn self-defense techniques like Tai Bo in case they attempt to restrain you

I'm sick of all this everyday harassment
I am tired of enduring constant mistreatment

(Sick of hopelessly watchin my man gettin his ass kicked, sick of being Followed shit is drastic)
(Tired of helplessly witnessing my friend being beaten, tired of being followed, the situation is severe)

Sick of havin visions of black caskets (Just because we rock our pants low)
Tired of having fearful thoughts of black coffins, simply because we wear our pants saggy

And our hats backwards (These cops is like cancer)
And we wear our hats turned backward (These police officers are like a harmful disease)

A tumor on our ass (We want answers)
Something that is constantly causing harm to us (We demand explanations)

(For bad manners) And the use of police scanners
(For their disrespectful behavior) And their abuse of police scanners

(So we jottin down their numbers) In our pocket planners
(So we write down their badge numbers) In our small notebooks

(for the day we meet up) With Jim Shapiro THE HAMMER!
(for the day we gather evidence) With lawyer Jim Shapiro as support
