On The 505
Woke up to the news that a kid was killed by the men in blue
Video was on YouTube he had a knife on the TTC
Didn't hurt anyone he was all alone cops pulled their guns
He started talking back to one and the situation came undone
Like it can with a loaded gun
On the 505 they shot nine times Sammy Yatim died
Blood on the tracks tonight and it's on the web worldwide
On the 505 I don't know why he had a knife
But he didn't owe his life and we saw it with our own eyes
Sammy was a mixed up kid from a war-torn land and he caused some shit
What was going through his head? There were people could have helped him out
But we'll never know for sure 'cause fear and bullets trumped strength and words
Now someone's wishing he could take it back every time he remembers
But a trigger is forever
On the 505 they shot nine times Sammy Yatim died
Blood on the tracks tonight and it's on the web worldwide
On the 505 I don't know why he had a knife
But he didn't owe his life and we saw it with our own eyes
Now we'll never know the reason why
Video was on YouTube he had a knife on the TTC
Didn't hurt anyone he was all alone cops pulled their guns
He started talking back to one and the situation came undone
Like it can with a loaded gun
On the 505 they shot nine times Sammy Yatim died
Blood on the tracks tonight and it's on the web worldwide
On the 505 I don't know why he had a knife
But he didn't owe his life and we saw it with our own eyes
Sammy was a mixed up kid from a war-torn land and he caused some shit
What was going through his head? There were people could have helped him out
But we'll never know for sure 'cause fear and bullets trumped strength and words
Now someone's wishing he could take it back every time he remembers
But a trigger is forever
On the 505 they shot nine times Sammy Yatim died
Blood on the tracks tonight and it's on the web worldwide
On the 505 I don't know why he had a knife
But he didn't owe his life and we saw it with our own eyes
Now we'll never know the reason why
