You hide behind false history
The present it proves you wrong
Dollars disregard humanity
As long as you're kept strong
Demand for changes keeps rising
Problem denied too long
What if it was one of your own
Left dead and all alone
They spill the blood of innocents
You let them carry on
What chance a new amendment
Nothing is set in stone
Every day dozens die
Blood is spilt
Mothers cry
Safe in your world
Face the small child
Friends have all died
Explain what happened to them
Hatred stockpiled
Shooter inside
Told to run hide
Explain what happened to them
Every day dozens die
Blood is spilt
Mothers cry
Safe in your world
Face the small child
Friends have all died
Hatred stockpiled
Shooter inside
Told to run hide
Outcry, justice, change
But all ignored
Placing rights above
The need for safety
Safety
