Atrocities carried out with preposterous speeds
AR-15s as easy as candy from seeds
They know what we mean
But how persecute if we don't have the means
When children cause others to bleed
We don't vilify the child but the country that breeds
All of the hatred and animosity
As well as serve quartermaster for villainous deeds
The same can be said for m**m extremes
Who allowed him to aquire that k**ing machine?
Was it him, you me or all of the three
They wish to make it seem
as though it's a matter of national security
More like compensation for insecurities
Or propaganda induced paranoic insanity
Regardless of which deity you believe
Your conscience they will alleviate
Your morals will deviate
With sensationalism they mediate
Relegate your focus to that which will demonstrate
The xenophobia crave
They make you their slave
Until laid rest in a grave
The issue is logical gun control laws
Deny the raptor its claws
Give the victims some gause
With all of our flaws
We can combine to change
There's no other way
Warfare is strange
Automatics belong on the firing range
If even that at least not in our homes
Domestic zones
Please stop the murder of innocents
This violence has grown to be intimate
So I beg us to withdraw from this age of rage
The coming generation knows what's wagered remains
the semblance of prosperity can still be saved
So don't allow your democracy to be waved
