Anywhere

This world we live in is filled with so much sin
And no matter what we do we will never win
Even though the police sometimes create a hostile situation
It’s not just in Detroit; it’s all across the nation

There is even black on black crime
At the drop of a dime
That people are trying to move some where peaceful
So they can be happy and joyful

But it could happen wherever you go
And yes, even in Boise Idaho
