A Capitol riot, you weren't there When they ain't black, you don't care You let them all in, they ran riot But if you're not white, don't even try it Why are you in riot gear? I don't see no riot here - or am I blind? #losangeles #lariots #fuckice open.spotify.com/track/1ZpfCb...

Your army tactics bend the law The very thing that you enforce Your armoured cars are a huge expense Your riot gear don't make any sense Why are you in riot gear? I don't see no riot here - or am I blind? #lariots matward.bandcamp.com/track/riot-g...
