Violence Is the Question Video (MV)

Dan went into Walmart with a gun
He wasn't after trouble, wasn't trying to hurt no one
Some kid bumped his back in Aisle Four
So Danny drew his gun and blew the kid's brains across the floor
Grabbed himself a Snickers bar then he walked right out the door

Shayna went to Synagogue that day
Said "Shalom!" to rabbi, she got a siddur to pray
Heard somebody Heil'ing down the hall
Screaming blood and soil as the bullets hit the wall
They blamed it all on mental health that God had missed her call

Violence ain't the answer
It's the question of our time
Is it right to have a right to take a life?

Deon left his pistol in the car
Didn't have a seatbelt on, he wasn't going far
Cop that pulled him over had a scare
When Deon tried to tell him, "There's a weapon over there"
They caught it all on camera but the jury didn't care

Violence ain't the answer
It's the question of our time
Is it right to have a right to take a life?
There's nowhere left to go
So tell me where to draw the line
Is it right to have a right to take a life?

The one thing that we're told from all the blood we've sown:
Is that it's worth the price of sacrifice to take care of our own

Gabby and her girls stayed out real late
Didn't call her man, she knew it's something he would hate
He hit her twice as soon as she got home
Gabby saw the gun there on the ground where she was thrown
Now she's in a prison cell - alive, but all alone

Violence ain't the answer
It's the question of our time
Is it right to have a right to take a life?
There's nowhere left to go
So tell me where to draw the line
Is it right to have a right to take a life?
