Operation Arrowhead Songtext
von The Write-ups

Look around you, the boys in blue are showing off their shiny new toys
The New Downtown, not for everybody, only the privileged afford

Out there beating women, children, making accusations,
Power corruptible, the legal means they′re abusing
Protect and serve? Their purpose is obfuscated
Police violence is not public safety

Look around you, the boys in blue are patrolling our streets again
Publicly funded, cost millions more than stable public housing

Your tax dollars at work, kickin' the shit out of you
The new downtown, time for urban renew
Too many incidents, far more than a few
I don′t feel safe, I don't know about you

The thin blue line is growing wider between cop and citizen
Operation Arrowhead: a catalyst for subjugation


They're coming for you, in constant pursuit
The new downtown, playground for the rich but not you
Black and brown folks, enjoying their own existence
Arrested, beaten, detained without resistance.

The thin blue line is growing wider between cop and citizen
Operation Arrowhead: catalyst for subjugation

They′re coming for you, to beat the living shit out of you
Just accept it, there′s nothing that you can do
The heart of downtown only for the privileged few
I don't feel welcome, I don′t know about you

The thin blue line is growing wider between cop and citizen
Operation Arrowhead: a catalyst for subjugation

The thin blue line is growing wider
Growing wider
Growing wider
Growing wide

The thin blue line is growing wider
Growing wider
Growing wider
Growing wide
