Chanson par le groupe Sublime, "April 29th, 1992 (Miami)"

April 26th, 1992, There was a riot on streets, tell me where were you?
You were sittin' home watchin' your TV, while I was participating in some anarchy [...]

Cause everybody in the hood has had it up to here, It's getting harder, and harder, and harder each and every year [...]

They said it was for the black man, they said it was for the Mexican, and not for the white man
But if you look at the streets, it wasn't about Rodney King
In this fucked-up situation and these fucked-up police
It's about comin' up and stayin' on top [...]
It's not in the paper, it's on the wall, National guard, smoke from all around!

32 ans après, on refait la liste des villes touchées par les émeutes? Le constat est le même, it's getting harder, and harder, and harder each and every year…
