For Grieving Families It's Much Too Late

I grew up believing America is so great Only to learn that its people live in a divided state So many innocent loved ones dying at an alarming rate Why won't congress put assault weapons on their plate For grieving families, it's much too late Why must the American people have to wait For lawmakers to get it straight Special interest money opening the flood gate Politicians playing with the innocent's fate Backsliding always allowed to skate The American people need to dictate Our solution that wipes Washingtons slate On how we govern our states To ban assault weapons that only devastate So we can decelerate and no longer tolerate All of these shooters twisted hate By letting our lawmakers know we will terminate Sending our message we won't allow them to negotiate This epidemic sending our loved ones to heavens gate.
