i just read up on that incident and like i live in philadeplhia so i knew something about a house being bombed by the police but i didtn know what it was..and it all makes sense and the wikipedia page even mentions that that incident is mentioned in this song. and he mentions how when it occured that they covered his ears so he couldnt hear... which i think is about how so many kids are kept ignorant and how most grow up ignorant to the world around them.
"So the crime was a trip to the market.
The sentence, a lifetime of hurt,
as she saw through tears,
her home of thirty of years
reduced to rubble and dirt. "
probably about someone who lived in the general are of where the incident occured and she went out to the market and came back and was just like "wtf" in simple terms... just how she was affected by somethign she wasnt even involved in but was silenced by the government.. haha idk
