RIOTS OF THE SUMMER

Are you ready for the riots of the summer
Are you ready for your city to burn
Are you ready for the looting and the shooting
Are you ready for suburbia's turn

Burning, Burning, and the highways are
blocked, blocked, blocked, blocked
blocked, blocked, blocked, blocked

Burning, Burning, getting
shot, shot, shot, shot
shot, shot, shot, shot

The crime stats tell a story
no one wants to hear

Are you ready for the riots of the summer
Are you ready for white cops to get the blame
Are you ready for Facebook profile filters
Are you ready—it's always the same

Burning, Burning, and the highways are
blocked, blocked, blocked, blocked
blocked, blocked, blocked, blocked

Burning, Burning, getting
shot, shot, shot, shot
shot, shot, shot, shot
