Lyrics
I normally don't go political
In my music,
Or even in general
I don't wanna draw a line down my audience
For having an opinion
That half of you do not agree with
But I'm tired of hearing in the news
About all of these shootings
I'm hearing bout a new one
Like every Tuesday
As if the damn USA
Doesn't get to choose or have anything to do with the fate of the students!
We treat it like it's normal
Cuz every time it happens
Just add it to the pile
The last four years are defiled
With every single soul of the children
Who smiled
All the meanwhile we bicker 'mongst ourselves
About whether we should ban our fucking firearms
As if it made a difference to the child.
Everything has to be political doesn't it?
Just do a better job at deciding their value!
Did the poor kid deserve to die or not?
That should be an easy question for you to answer
Remember Sandy Hook? I bet it's hard to forget that
All the candles they lit to commemorate how they lived
Then the politicians
Commercialized on disaster
Like its mandatory that they have to
I've lost track of
The number of times my grandma has sat down
And told me about another catastrophe happening!
That is the reason why I hate guns.
That is the reason I always looked around with terror in high school
Speaking for my family
That I wanna have and my children
I'm scared will never get to even graduate
Someone in the school will have shot him
Right before transitioning to college
Going to her final in algebra
Gonna fucking nail that exam,
But he didn't even get to cuz her head's smashed
Bet that'd be another fucking newscast
It could happen to any of you guys
Don't wanna be rude but
Nobody cares about when a woman's baby dies
You could think that I'm spineless but it's the news, guys!
I even heard that these shootings have happened at preschools,
Can you believe it? A fucking PRESCHOOL!
You think your kid is safe cuz she's three, dude?
You better believe that you could dig another grave
In a week or two
For the stupidest reason,
It's the new academic
Environment that we all need to be conscious of
Wait until '25
We'll have upgraded from shootings to bombings
And then a bunch of other babies will die
And everybody will cry
About all the babies who died
And then in seven months time
It'll happen another time
And nobody will be surprised
That there's been a new pedicide
Cuz the victims of all the crimes
Will be added to other lives!
But genocide in any form should not be the price
That we pay for the sake of the stupid second amendment
But all you motherfucking far right conservatives care about
Is reserving your pride for your Ak-47 outside
And all you motherfucking far left liberals care about
Is being all SJW to ban all our weapons
You're both wrong
You're both dumb.
While you are shitting each other
Another killer just murdered six other children this morning!
Why is it such a controversy to discuss the biggest issue
That our little babies are dying?
Stop talking about it on MSNBC and elect to do something
Get off your ass and stop being silent
Cuz overall I feel like our country is too quiet
The kids we are losing should be recognized
By the planet
(Loudly)
I would even go as far as to say
That their sacrifice has earned them a place in the motherfucking national anthem!
I don't need to be a political person
To understand that it's terrible
Hearing about their death is unbearable
Sandy Hook was only catalyst for where it all
Began, marginalizing tragedies isn't fair at all
What about the teachers who protected 'em?
Giving their lives to try to save anyone
They knew that they would never save everyone
But goddamn it, that shit is inspiring
And I would do the same for my baby girl!
The bottom line is our babies are dying
I've said this about a million times
But it could take a billion before somebody finally realizes
The horrible price that we've paid with the cost of their lives
I know that this song will never change shit
I know a lot of people will hate me
But ask yourself, where would you be if not for your baby?
Look at their face
And tell me that you wouldn't do anything it took
To save them?
