"Chorus:
  
  Woop-woop!That's the sound of da police!Woop-woop!
  That's the sound of the beast!
  
  Verse One:
  
  Stand clear! Don man a-talk
  You can't stand where I stand, you can't walk where I walk
  Watch out! We run New YorkPolice man come, we bust him out the park
  I know this for a fact, you don't like how I actYou claim I'm sellin' crack
  But you be doin' thatI'd rather say "see ya"Cause I would never be ya
  Be a officer? You WICKED overseer!Ya hotshot, wanna get props and be a
  saviour
  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 meYour laws are
  minimal
  Cause you won't even think about lookin' at the real criminal
  This has got to ceaseCause we be getting HYPED to the sound of da police!
  
  Chorus
  
  Verse Two:
  
  Now here's a likkle truth
  Open up your eye
  While you're checking out the boom-bap, check the exercise
  Take the word "overseer," like a sample
  Repeat it very quickly in a crew for exampleOverseerOverseerOverseerOverseer
  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 patroling all the nation
  The overseer could stop you what you're doing
  The officer will pull you over just when he's pursuing
  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 horsesAfter 400 years, I've _got_ no choices!
  The police them have a little 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
  
  Chorus
  
  Verse Three:
  
  Check out the message in a rough styleeThe real criminals are the C-O-P
  You check for undercover and the one PD
  But just a mere Black man, them want check me
  Them check out me car for it shine like the sun
  But them jealous or them vexed cause them can't afford one
  Black people still slaves up til today
  But the Black police officer nah see it that wayHim want a salaryHim want it
  So he put on a badge and kill people for it
  My grandfather had to deal with the copsMy 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?!
