lyrics

there’s a black line
running through my neighborhood

we ain't blind
I think we know what’s understood

and the police
they got time

to pick you up on a bullshit crime
it’s a black line
and I think it’s understood

but there ain’t no heros in the dark of night
ain't no wrong time to make things right
ain't no demons that the lord don’t know
its a long way but we can’t let go
it’s a long way but we can’t let go


there’s a black line
in every secret town

it all looks fine
but i think we know what’s going down

and the police
they don’t mind
they’re overcrowded with the black mans time
it’s a black line, I think it’s understood..

but there ain’t no heros in the dark of night
ain't no wrong time to make things right
ain't no demons that the lord don’t know
its a long time but we can’t let go
it’s a long time but we can’t let go

and the police
they’re on call
to knock you down when a man can’t crawl
there’s a black line
in the skin
but i know that love don’t end


ain’t no heros in the dark of night
ain't no wrong time to make things right
ain't no demons that the lord don’t know
its a long way and we can’t let go

ain’t no hero's in the dark of night
ain't no wrong time to make things right
ain't no leading with the past in tow
its a long way and we can’t let go
it’s a long way and we can’t let go
