"Hands up, dont shoot"

I surrender! I surrender!!

 

I have nothing that can harm you

 

Tell me what is it about me that poses

 

As a threat to you armed fools?

 

I may have broke the law...then again i

 

Couldve been innocent

 

If youre here to serve and protect, why do you seem to lack diligence

 

You have tasers, you have batons, tell me...why resort to murder?

 

All these unnecessary slayings just for reasons thats unheard of

 

Though i couldve done wrong, i certainly did not deserve this

 

You couldve put me in a squad car with cuffs smacked around my wrists

 

But while i stand here with my hands up, dont shoot!! Dont shoot!!

 

You may label me a criminal, but lets not forget i am human too

 

I do not have a weapon, what could i possibly do to you?

 

I have nothin left to do but throw my hands up..DONT SHOOT!!
