Tema[]
La canción describe cómo las autoridades parecen salvar a los niños blancos, mientras que los niños negros son marginados de tal manera que la policía borra su existencia o simplemente los ignora. Toda la canción representa una narración temáticamente similar a "Tag, You're It" y "Milk and Cookies". Parece que la letra del primer verso resume lo sucedido en el vídeo musical "Tag, You're It".
Letra[]
[Estrofa 1]
She had been taken away from her family
Away from the only place that she had felt safe in
Away from the ones she loved
Inside a basement, he watches her moves and her pacing
She tries to find a door to escape him
But she can't find any doors
[Pre-Coro 1]
Who cares if she don't look like you?
Karma will come back to eat you
Why does she have to be white to
Be seen as a fucking equal?
[Coro]
You erase her
The radio, news and thе paper
You say, you say "Maybe later"
Wеll, later's too late
Go fucking save her
[Post-Coro]
Erase her, erase her
[Estrofa 2]
She hears him walking
She's praying the police come knocking
Assuming that they're all already plotting
To save her from dying young
[Pre-Coro 2]
Put her on the television
Don't let all these girls stay missing
Stop picking your favorite faces
This ain't no cast, it's a mission
[Coro]
You erase her
The radio, news and the paper
You say, you say "Maybe later"
Well, later's too late
Go fucking save her
[Puente]
She's crying, I wish I could pull her out of that man's house
But I'm just me, I'm no police
I'm not qualified to go searching
But I would be if I were in your shoes
[Coro]
But you erase her
The radio, news and the paper
You say, you say "Maybe later"
Well, later's too late
Go fucking save her
You erase her
The radio, news and the paper
You say, you say "Maybe later"
Well, later's too late
Go fucking save her
[Post-Coro]
Erase her, erase her
Erase her, erase her
[Estrofa 1]
