[intro] [4 bar guitar solo] [Verse 1] They stood tall in the academy halls Dreams of justice, ready for the call They wore the badge like a badge of pride Swore they'd never let the truth hide [Pre-Chorus] But when they hit the streets, it wasn't what they thought The fight for right is harder than they were taught [Chorus] They hit the streets and were hit with a curve It felt more like Protect and Swerve Haters at every turn, nowhere to hide Chasing justice down the roughest ride [Verse 2] Uncooperative witnesses, silent stares Trying to do good, but no one cares They said the truth would always prevail But out here, it’s like chasing wind in a sail [Pre-Chorus] Reality hit like a wave on the shore The badge feels heavy, and they’re wanting more [Chorus] They hit the streets and were hit with a curve It felt more like Protect and Swerve Haters at every turn, nowhere to hide Chasing justice down the roughest ride [Bridge] Some nights they wonder, is it worth the fight? When the world around them won’t see the light But deep in their heart, they hold on tight 'Cause for every wrong, they’ll make it right [Chorus] They hit the streets and were hit with a curve It felt more like Protect and Swerve Haters at every turn, nowhere to hide Chasing justice down the roughest ride [Outro] But they’ll keep going, they’ll stand their ground Even when the world tries to bring them down They’ll protect and serve, but they’ve learned to swerve For the truth, they’ll always fight with nerve
