Dont support the war on crime 
Innocent people are doing time 
More an more cops and jails 
This solution to crime is going to fail 
Dont you see what theyre trying to do 
Theyre not concered with your safety 
They want to control you, congress passes 
More oppressive laws then they lock us away 
 
Wallstreet perpetuates poverty then they 
Lock us away the media creates hysteria then 
They lock us away soon the whole country will 
Be under martial law then theyll lock us all away 
People have always been the same theres always 
Been assholes who should be locked away such as 
Murderers, rapists, and all the politicians 
But now theres people getting locked 
Away for no reason 
 
Incarceration and the death penalty 
Do nothing to reduce crime it distracts us 
From fighting the social conditions 
Which create this insane violence 
Such as poverty and racism and sexism 
And homelessness 
 
The only way to fight against crime 
Is to put human needs before profit 
Dont support the war on crime 
Innocent people are doing time 
Were denied healthcare, education, and housing, 
Domestic violence and child abuse are never ending 
But none of these artrocities are seen as crime 
Neither is sending someone off to war to die
