Words

Bullets fly threw the sky looking for life
]
Cutting through light with the focus of making night

Once they find their right they leave nothing but the end of life

Words fly through the light looking for someone to end their flight

And once they find there intention it gives them a purpose

To influences our view

Whether they are right or wrong they have changed our song

This has doubted our right to live our life

We were given the right to let our own words have the light

So we can empower our own rights and sing our own song
