Scared of the Police - Reuben

I’m scared of the police

I’m scared of the violence

I’m scared of handcuffs

And truncheons

I’m just too scared

So pack your bags

We’re going home

This place has started to stink

I’ve been standing around

For far too long

And my feet have started to sink in

And I’m scared of becoming

A statue, a monolith

And not changing, ever

It’s not healthy, and I’m just

Scared of it

And I’m scared of your anger

And I don’t know what causes it

And you know that it hurts me

But I like you
