oskar barnack ∞ oscar grant - blue scholars lyrics

[intro: “oskar barnack” by sabzi]

[sabzi used geo’s leica camera to produce cl!cks and whirs which steadily become a rhythmic instrumental for the song “oscar grant”]

[song: “oscar grant” begins at 1:16]

[hook: geo]
(we got the right to bear arms but…)
shoot the cops, shoot the cops, shoot the cops
take your cameras out your pockets people
shoot the cops, shoot the cops, shoot the cops
take your cameras out your pockets people

[verse 1: geo]
if they wanna shoot at us, got a right to shoot em up
they shoot us in the back, then they say its from the front
you’re warned even if you aren’t armed
they will find an excuse to do you harm if they think you’re out of line
in every city’s urban jurisdiction you will find
some people making livings out of creeping from behind
and even if behaving most the time, man they know, if an officer’s to blame they need to let it go
with a family at home, a mortgage to support
in times when its h-lla hard as f-ck to find a job
if you wanna keep yours, you better not inform
don’t wanna be the side on the wrong side of the law
but guess what the people got a weapon of their own
the lens and a shutter built into a mobile phone
evidence admissible in court even more more doc-mented cases of what thing going on

[hook]

[verse 2: geo]
i hear them saying that this sh-t don’t ever happen in seattle
and if it does it’s really just a couple bad apples
but if you’re keeping count you will see the sh-t is not the apple it’s the tree
it’s rotten underneath
oh say can you see no way that its true they don’t wanna see another south central ’92
or seattle ’99
even if it happens what they’re saying on the news
bad people mad justifying the abuse
and youth, especially the ones with darker features being targeted to boot
and true, some people can’t handle the truth
now keep that feeling in mind when you pull the camera out and ask a pig to smile at you
i’m ain’t talking one i’m talking 3 or 4 or 5
what you so afraid of if you ain’t committing crime
we are merely doing what a citizen should do
better act right if i were you
the world is watching you

[hook]
