(Michael)

Tired of injustice

Tired of the schemes

Kinda disgusted

So what does it mean

Kicking me down

I got to get up

As jacked as it sounds

The whole system sucks



(Janet)

Peek in the shadow

Come into the light

You tell me I'm wrong

Then you better prove you're right

You're sellin' out souls but

I care about mine

I've got to get stronger

And I won't give up the fight



(Michael)

With such confusions

Don't it make you wanna scream

Your bash abusin' victimize within the scheme



(Janet)

You try to cope with every lie they scrutinize



(Both)

Somebody please have mercy

'Cause I just can't take it

Stop pressurin' me

Just stop pressurin' me

Stop pressurin' me

Make me wanna scream

Stop pressurin' me

Just stop pressurin' me

Stop pressurin' me

Make you just wanna scream



(Michael)

Tired of you tellin' the story your way

It's causin' confusion

You think it's okay



(Janet)

Keep changin' the rules

While you're playin' the game

I can't take it much longer

I think I might go insane



(Michael)

With such confusion

Don't it make you wanna scream

Your bash abusin' victimize within the scheme



(Janet)

You find your pleasure scandalizin' every lie



(Both)

Oh father, please have mercy 'cause

I just can't take it

Stop pressurin' me

Just stop pressurin' me

Stop pressurin' me

Make me wanna scream

Stop pressurin' me

Just stop pressurin' me

Stop fuckin' with me

Make me wanna scream



(Janet)

"Oh my God, can't believe what I saw

As I turned on the TV this evening

I was disgusted by all the injustice

All the injustice"



(Michael)

"All the injustice"



(Man)

"A man has been brutally beaten to death by

Police after being wrongly identified as a

robbery suspect. The man was

an 18 year old black male..."



(Michael)

With such collusions

Don't it make you wanna scream

Your bash abusin' victimize within the scheme



(Janet)

You try to cope with every lie they scrutinize



(Both)

Oh brother please have mercy

'Cause I just can't take it

Stop pressurin' me



Just stop pressurin' me

Stop pressurin' me

Make me wanna scream
