You people are idiots! How do you not like this song? It chills my fucking spine every time I listen to it, but not because of stza's lovely vocals, but because of what he's saying and how it correlates with the actually instances of MOVE and the police encounters they had. The lyrics themselves are so intense, and the insanely brutal music just floods so much more emotion into song. Frankly, this song is beautiful! I cannot think of a better way they could have finished such an incredible album. The way they open up to it, when stza first screams, the piano at the end even is fascinatingly fantastic.

What this song is about is the nine MOVE members who were imprisoned for shooting a local police officer. Thing is, by the angle from which he was shot, reasons indicate that he was shot by a fellow police officer, but the members of MOVE were blamed instead, but not just the one who supposedly killed the cop, but all nine for committing one crime. They'll be released nest year in 2008 after having been imprisoned for 30 years. The other instance described in this song is when the members were bombed with C4 and then fired at when they tried to escape from the fire. Some members were seriously effected with long-term illnesses or diseases due to the bombing. Anyways, both of these are some of the best examples of police brutally and even government corruption that I have ever looked into.
