[VERSE 1]
I WANNA VOMIT WHEN I SEE IT HAPPEN
LIVE ON TELEVISION
BLOODY EYES WIDE OPEN
RUBBER BULLET TO THE SOCKET
CAUSE THEY TOLD YOU "PLEASE SIR I WANT SOME MORE"
JUSTICE IS AUTOMATIC
I ASK EM “WHAT GIVES YOU THE RIGHT? WHAT IS YOUR PASSION?
DO YOU ONLY EVER LOVE
IN PASSING?”
THEY TELL ME
“BLOOD AND CONCRETE
BLOOD AND CONCRETE
BLOOD AND CONCRETE
‘CAUSE IT FEELS LIKE MAGIC”
[PRE-Chorus 1]
LAST NIGHT YOU DREAMED THE KIDS WERE DROWNING, WAS IT DEJA VU?
AN ARM IN RUBBLE
PRAISE THE HERO DRENCHED IN ASH IN FRONT OF YOU
IT’S GETTING HARD EVERY MORNING
WAKING UP TO NOTHING NEW
ANOTHER MURDER KILLED A KID
YOU KNOW THEY LET THE KILLER TOO
CAN YOU SAVE ME?
[Chorus]
I DON'T WANNA BE
CRUSHED BY HISTORY
FIRE’S BURNING UP
CAN WE SAVE US?
[VERSE 2]
YOU WOULD RATHER CALL ME A DOG
CHOKED BY AN ELECTRIC COLLAR
CALL HER THE BALL AND CHAIN
FUCK HER UP AND SAVE A DOLLAR
DONATE SOME SHOES TO THE POOR GUY
A VETERAN IN THE GOLDEN STREETS
FOUND DEAD IN THE MORNING
LYING ON THE CONCRETE
CT SCANS AREN’T FREE
[PRE-Chorus 2]
I FEAR THE FUTURE MORE THAN ANYTHING YOU DO
CAUSE ALL THE KIDS ARE GETTING QUEERER
WHILE THE SPIKES UNDER YOUR SHOES
ARE GETTING TALLER HOW SHOULD I EXPECT TO LIVE? IT’S RAINING BULLETS
EVEN STILL MY BODY HAS THE FIGHT TO GIVE
MY BODY HAS THE FIGHT TO GIVE
ONE MORE TIME FOR THE HOEDOWN!
[Chorus]
I DON'T WANNA BE
CRUSHED BY HISTORY
FIRE’S BURNING UP
CAN WE SAVE US?
[BRIDGE]
RUN ME OVER, HOW SHOULD I CARE?
IF YOU PUT A BULLET IN MY BRAIN, I CAN’T COMPLAIN
CAN’T COMPLAIN
(YEAH!)
[OUTRO]
IF YOU SPIT IN MY FACE I CAN SPIT RIGHT BACK
IF YOU SPIT IN MY FACE I CAN SPIT RIGHT BACK
IF YOU SPIT IN MY FACE I CAN SPIT RIGHT BACK
IF YOU SPIT IN MY FACE I CAN SPIT RIGHT BACK
DON’T FORGET THAT
DON’T FORGET THAT
DON’T FORGET THAT
DON’T FORGET THAT
DON’T FORGET THAT
MOTHERFUCKER
FUCK OFF!
