[Verse 1]
Had a dream
That I was on the run
From a man that held a gun
Went to hide, successfully survived
Woke up, and appreciated life
But is this world a scary place
In here as it was in there?
It's unfair and it's rare
That some people would actually care
About each other
Don't kill one another
Too many hearts are stuck undercover
With power trips and ego minds
We would stab a man to make another dime
God and peace is all we need
Pray at night that we all sleep at night
Come on
[Chorus]
Put down your gun, yeah!
Said put down your gun, yeah!
You can get your energy from the son
You can get your energy from the son
Put down your gun, yeah!
Cause all lives matter, uh
[Verse 2]
When I die, I want the world to know
That I sang with soul and meant every word
That I put music over any hoe....
[Skit: Girl]
I wanna kill myself!
I'm so sexually frustrated
So now I wanna fuck so many girls
You don't understand-
[Verse 2; continued]
Yet, the struggle isn't over
Living off of wheat bread and cans of diet soda
Can leave a mark, leave you in the dark
The light at the end does seem pretty far
But you only get the respect you provide
You gotta love 'em all like you love your own kind
We are one, said we are one
Come joy ride with us just for the fun
Pray not just to The Father, but to The Son
Let's go
[Chorus]
Put down your gun, yeah!
Said put down your gun, yeah!
You can get your energy from the son
You can get your energy from the son
Put down your gun, yeah!
Cause all lives matter
[Bridge]
All you've gotta do is be kind
Just take care of yourself
Satan may be tricky but he can't read my mind
Said playing chess with the wicked
When you don't know wrong from right
Is difficult 'til you know
That Christ is on you side
I can't turn to nobody else
Oh no, no, no, no
Come on!
[Chorus]
Put down your gun, yeah!
Said put down your gun, yeah!
You can get your energy from the son
You can get your energy from the son
The Son of God
Put down your gun, yeah!
Said put down your gun, yeah!
You can get your energy from the son
You can get your energy from the son
You can get your energy from the son
You can get your energy from the son
You can get your energy from the son
You can get your energy from the son
The Son of God
