Kardinal Offishall - Officer Down Lyrics






When reason dies behind closed doors
Face down in a cell in a pool of piss
It's time to fear what we should respect
It's time to question cause and effect
Striking with impunity
Hiding behind flags of immunity

When corruption rears its ugly head
The force of law becomes a farce
Personal ambition usurps justice
The rich protected at the expense of the poor
Would you sit on the fence, take no chance?
As those batons fall, turn a blind eye

In an ideal world
There'd be no need for law
No need for police
But in a society so sick
So obsessed with blind greed
Someone has to protect
The old and the weak

Officer down

Can we really afford to be so selectively blind?
If we dig too deep what would we find?
At authority's heart beats a dollar sign
Under such a regime we're all doing time
Striking with impunity
Hiding behind flags of immunity

Never say, you weren't warned
When they come to drag you away
To silence the dissident hiding in us all
They clench the fist of ordained might
From which side of the barbed wire
Do you want to see your life pass by?

When reason dies behind closed doors
Face down in a cell in a pool of piss
It's time to fear what we should respect
It's time to question
Cause and effect
Who teaches the teachers?
Who makes laws for lawmakers?
When they read us our rights
What about human rights?

    i still listen to kardinal, but my qusteion is did he have to stoup to this low, not to metion his song with akon. the new low. i think this the few tracks that came out with this song was meant as a diss to mayhem.

  76. S.... P....

    dont let these dudes fool you, especially 50 Cent, you dont think he rolls with Police? of course he does... And Kardi? i thought you were smarter/more concious then this macho-cop-killer bullshit persona your tryna portray.

  77. G.... C....

    Welcome back out.

  78. B.... C....

    well let him get broke now...so he can bring that same hungry underground flow

  79. G.... C....

    man...he should have done that song with the beat that 50 used in GRODT the movie. that beat was a fuckin killer. this one good though.

  80. c.... ....

    its about world wide respect ...learn to respect all those that live work and live .... 50 is short of respect but thats okay we all different stages ..... T dot O dot one of a kind ..

    one thing about cops from kardinal's hometown, ders always a cop watchin a cop....*&-
