Verse
F#
He was running down the street
F#
When they shot him in his tracks
B4 B9
About the only thing agreed upon
B4 B9
Is he ain't coming back
F#
There won't be any trial
F#
So the air it won't be cleared
B4 B9
There's just two sides calling names
B4 B9
Out of anger out of fear
F#
If you say it wasn't racial
F#
When they shot him in his tracks
B4 B9
Well I guess that means that you ain't black
B4 B9
It means that you ain't black
F#
I mean Barack Obama won
F#
And you can choose where to eat
B4 B9
But you don't see too many white kids lying
B4 B9
Bleeding on the street
[Verse 2]
F#
In some town in Missouri
F#
But it could be anywhere
B4 B9
It could be right here on Ruth Street
B4 B9
In fact it's happened here
F#
And it happened where you're sitting
F#
Wherever that might be
B4 B9
And it happened last weekend
B4 B9
And it will happen again next week
F#
And when they turned him over
F#
They were surprised there was no gun
B4 B9
I mean he must have done something
B4 B9
Or else why would he have run
F#
And they'll spin it for the anchors
F#
On the television screen
B4 B9
So we can shrug and let it happen
B4 B9
Without asking what it means
[Chorus]
F#
What it means?
F#
What it means?
[Verse 3]
F#
Then I guess there was protesting
F#
And some looting in some stores
B4 B9
And someone was reminded that
B4 B9
They ain't called colored folks no more
F#
I mean we try to be politically
F#
Correct when we call names
B4 B9
But what's the point of post-racial
B4 B9
When old prejudice remains?
F#
And that guy who killed that kid
F#
Down in Florida standing ground
B4 B9
Is free to beat up on his girlfriend
B4 B9
And wave his brand new gun around
F#
While some kid is dead and buried
F#
And laying in the ground
F#
With a pocket full of skittles
[Chorus]
F#
What it means?
F#
What it means?
[Verse 4]
F#
Astrophysics at our fingertips
F#
And we're standing at the summit
B4 B9
And some man with a joystick
B4 B9
Lands a rocket on a comet
F#
We're living in an age
F#
Where limitations are forgotten
B4 B9
The outer edges move and dazzle us
B4 B9
But the core is something rotten
F#
And we're standing on the precipice
F#
Of prejudice and fear
B4 B9
We trust science just as long
B4 B9
As it tells us what we want to hear
F#
We want our truths all fair and balanced
F#
As long as our notions lie within it
B4 B9
There's no sunlight in our asses
B4 B9
And our heads are stuck up in it
F#
And our heroes may be rapists
F#
Who watch us while we dream
B4 B9
But don't look to me for answers
B4 B9
Cuz I don't know what it means
[Chorus]
F#
What it means?
F#
What it means?
