Thoughts and Prayers

Some cops aren't heroes Some soldiers commit war crimes Sometimes even preachers only want to rob you blind Most Christians aren't saints And most Muslims want peace You're more likely to get shot by a white guy than a Sheikh And you could know that if you chose to But you've built your cross to bear 'Cause it don't happen if it don't happen to you And I know you won't understand 'cause you don't really care Thoughts and prayers We say Black Lives Matter 'Cause they lose lives more often But saying "Save the whales" isn't saying "F*ck the dolphins" And all things being equal It ain't equal at all Where you may find a doorway some folks only find a wall And you could know that if you chose to But you've built your cross to bear 'Cause it don't happen if it don't happen to you And I know you won't understand 'cause you don't really care And you don't wanna learn You just want to teach You don't like the practice You just like to preach There's no war on Christmas And you're allowed to pray But we don't live in Burger King, you can't have it your way All your news is dangerous All your views alt right Breitbart wouldn't know "news" if it got raw dogged by Cronkite And you could know that if you chose to But you've built your cross to bear 'Cause it don't happen if it don't happen to you And I know you won't understand 'cause you don't really care Thoughts and prayers Go f*ck your thoughts and prayers
