lyrics

Hey boy, let me see your hands
You got nothing to hide you got nothing to fear from my hand
This happens, more than you know
Your rolling the dice when your rolling outside the ghetto
So hey boy, ain't gonna say it again
Put your hands on the wheel or I'll claim self-defence
What would happen, If our rolls where reversed
Then the shots rang out just like the times before
You say traffic stop, I say road block
You say self-defence, I say what evidence
You put him in the ground, to keep him from talking out
You shrug and say, their born to die that way
There's a time and a place, for justice
And that time and place, is now
There's a time and a place, for justice
And that time and place, is now
There's a time and a place, for justice
And that time and place, is now
