timothy brindle - false narrative كلمات الأغنية

[based on chapter 6: seeking true justice, in fault lines (written by voddie baucham, salem books, washington, d.c., 2021)]

[verse 1: tony timpa]
welcome to the scene of the crime, seen with your mind
i’ll describe the events: three policemen arrive
i thought the police would treat me with decent respect
i never resisted or tried to flee the arrest
pinned by these knees on my neck, lungs squeezing for breath
barely breathing while screaming, i feel heat in my chest
but the policе don’t cease, they’rе eager to flex
i never thought this would be the scene of my death!
knees pressed on my back, in the pr_ne position
“stop! i can’t breathe!”, but no one will listen!
compressing the breath from my chest and diaphragm
does it matter to these cops that i’m a man!?!
they didn’t wait to see if i’m guilty
i cried out over and over again, “you’re gonna k!ll me!”
perverted minds, committing this murder crime
while i’m squirming, dying, i cried for help thirty times!
hand_cuffed, face_down, on top of the street
they thought i’m asleep, yo, they mock as they speak:
“time to get up for school and wake from bed!”
but i could no longer shake my head, too late, i’m dead
the cop’s body_camera filmed my death here
but it didn’t make the news until the next year
what happened to these 3 wicked sergeants?
indicted with manslaughter, but the d.a. dismissed the charges!
do people say my name? nope, most don’t remember
so no one protested the death of tony timpa
just like george floyd in comparison
but, ’cause i’m white, my story doesn’t fit the narrative
[chorus]
is the narrative you listen to truthful?
or is it a false witness? this is crucial
john 7:24, here is christ’s justice:
“don’t judge by appearances, but right judgment!”

[verse 2: ciara meyer]
“daddy, who’s that banging at the door?”
he put one in the chamber, started aiming it some more
i’m fearing in my heart, am i appearing as a target?
he is also startled, “who is here at my apartment?”
he said stay behind him, prepare to dash and run
he has his gun, now i feel trapped and stunned
“oh no! it’s the police”, he aims his gun at the cop
the cop fires his, now my lung has been shot
the cop’s bullet hit his arm and traveled through it to me
i’m laying on the ground, bleeding, gasping, and i’m woozy
i died from my wounds, see, certainly the worst scene
this girl will never live to see thirteen!
you’ll never see my name when they wear attire
nfl players never kneeled for ciara meyer
just like breonna taylor in comparison
but, ’cause i’m white, my story doesn’t fit the narrative
[chorus]
is the narrative you listen to truthful?
or is it a false witness? this is crucial
john 7:24, here is christ’s justice:
“don’t judge by appearances, but right judgment!”

[verse 3: false testimony]
philando castile was k!lled at a traffic_stop by a traffic cop
who sadly thought philando tried to grab his glock
that same summer, the same thing happened to dylan n0ble
blasted by 11 massive shots
philando was black, but the latter was not
not to mention, philando’s shooter was a latin cop
this reminds me of trayvon
race_hustlers invented a false narrative to prey on:
“a white racist k!lled him!” actually, the truth, my friend
george zimmerman’s hispanic, african_peruvian
many claim that floyd’s death represented
america’s deep racism that’s systemic
with factual comparison, i’m challenging the narrative
that whites are out to get african_americans
let’s discuss these thorough specifics:
according to the justice of bureau statistics
in interracial percentage of crime
blacks attack whites 85% of the time
and how long will you speak this fallacy
of a systemic anti_black police brutality?
cops are 18 and a half times more likely
to be k!lled by a black assailant _ precisely:
america’s racist history’s atrocious
but that can’t be the data for the current diagnosis!
if we view the present through the lens of the past
it’s skewed and tinted with sentiments instead of facts
instead, receive the truthful narrative
of jesus who was crucified to bear our sins
[chorus]
is the narrative you listen to truthful?
or is it a false witness? this is crucial
john 7:24, here is christ’s justice:
“don’t judge by appearances, but right judgment!”
is the narrative you listen to truthful?
or is it a false witness? this is crucial

[outro: voddie baucham]
i saw…and i was moved by it
i was moved by this moment, where a man is in despair
and a police officer in uniform is kneeling on the back and neck of this man who is in despair
this man who was pleading for his life
i_i’ll never forget what it felt like to watch, as this man goes limp
and then eventually to realize:
this man is dead!
this man is dead _ at the hands of men who’d sworn to protect and to serve
i’ll never forget that day
now, you may assume that the day i’m talking about is the day that george floyd died
or the day that i saw the video of george floyd
i’m not
i’m talking about the day that i saw the video of tony timpa
