Voice For the People

Lay me down so fast asleep. Without a sound not even a peep. Drifting deep into my dreams. Leaving the world as it seems. Maybe one day ill wake up to a better place. A place that could wipe this frown from my face. I dream of a world where we can all get along. Stop all this b.s. fighting and just move on. Yeah you and me may not be the same. But acting out on your ways just puts a stereotype on our name. Black, white, brown or yellow. Our coffins are all the same size so its time to stay mellow. If one puts his guns down others will follow, Its time to stop packin all this heat. Time to stop leaving people dead in the street. Streets are hard enough without all them guns. Kids getting shot while outside having fun. Parents reminiscing about the good old days. Where it was safe to send your kids outside to play. Kids killing kids not caring about their age. We need to stop the violence. We need to stop the rage. Just trying to be a voice for us all. If we don't learn to stand together then we're bound to fall, I say this all as one persons voice, But in order to make a change you have to make a choice, People out here dyin each and everyday, Don't you think it's time to put them guns away, Because maybe tomorrow won't be on your side, Maybe one of your brothers or sisters didnt have the time to hide, Now blast there gone in a drive by, Now your standing there crying with your hand over your eyes, You wanna get even but please use your head, Because using them guns will just keep leaving another one dead.
