(Not ask for peace--demand) are those who cause
Its absence. That is us. This will not cease
Until we change, and recognize: the laws
We hold to, and the order that we know
Bring violence. We cause hurt every day
And act surprised when those that we lay low
Refuse to stay there. They are not OK.
They do not owe it to us to pretend
They do not owe it to us to be quiet
They do not owe it to us, now, to end
What we sustain. The system made the riot.
The system's ours. The riot too. So we
To make the peace must change society.
