Cory Cofer: “Untitled”

Untitled

I saw this flick the other day where this black man died
Same flick the other week, where this black man died
Same flick the other month where this black mom cried
Excessive force, plain view and the cops still lied
I recall my football coaches stressing film don’t lie
And we be running til that whistle blow, the eye in the sky
I guess the eye on the phones, don’t really apply
The eyes of the surveillance, the witness’s eyes
The eyes of the law, our eyes, what we saw
What we heard, what we feel, a system of flaws
An eye for an eye, that’s how Im feeling right now
You should reap what you sow, that’s how Im feeling right now
Voice of the unheard, that’s why its rioting now
To all my non-black friends, no time for quieting now
