Guns Gone Wild
Guns Gone Wild
The sound of not so distant gunfire rings in my ears
I’ve been hearing these sounds for years
But they don't seem to quit
Red states don’t give a shit
They like their guns and their second amendment rights
But they don't seem to understand our rights
The right to life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness
My right to an education
They will say “We are a divided nation”
But they don’t seem to understand the depth
That watching my friend’s death
Is like never being able to breathe fresh air
But they don't care
They think they are taking the crown of thorns
They think they are going against the norms
All it is is Guns Gone Wild
Nothing about AR-15s is mild
They aren’t hunting weapons
They are warfare trepans
No other democratic nations
Would let humans die from these abominations
Except in America, where the president pays off porns stars
And cuddles up to czars
When the victims try to fight back
The Alt-Right takes it as an attack
A fight for our life
Is only met with strife
Dumb kids, get back to class
Our attempts to make them empathize is seen as crass
We walk out of the hunting ground to Washington, DC
But they close congress doors so they don't see
So they don’t see the blood on the ground
The children’s bodies all around
It’s Guns Gone Wild
Where a rifle is worth more than a child
