Safe
In a mad man's world, happens every day
I don't understand why the rules can't change
I don't wanna be a moment of silence
I don't wanna be an early grave
When I'm walking through the halls
I don't wanna be brave, I just wanna be safe
We were just looking for a good time
Now it's goodbyes for no reason
Every day gun season, breathing was uneven
People down on knees and everything was a blur
Can't tell you where he was, but I remember where we were
Look, lately, we can't even have our past-time
We leave our homes and wonder if it'll be our last time
If I die before I wake, please forgive all my mistakes
Know that I was gonna stand for something, something, something
I've got so much life to live, and I've got so much love to give
Please don't take it all for nothing, nothing, nothing, nothing
In a mad man's world, happens every day
I don't understand why the rules can't change
I don't wanna be a moment of silence
I don't wanna be an early grave
When I'm walking through the halls
I don't wanna be brave, I just wanna be safe
Yeah, politicians only slight work
Tell me, what is my life worth?
Mamas look at babies sayin' bye while they in diapers
Used to be afraid of snipers, Boogie Man, Pied Piper
Now we in the street, afraid of rifles
They end up in the wrong hands
Say we shouldn't ban all
Does the right to bear arms trump the right to stand tall?
'Cause the money green as foliage in cemeteries
People up in power cool with laws remaining sedentary
Think I've had enough of it, done just putting up with it
We gotta make a difference, we won't let 'em take another kid
I'm done with it
If I die before I wake, please forgive all my mistakes
Know that I was gonna stand for something, something, something
I've got so much life to live, and I've got so much love to give
Please don't take it all for nothing, nothing, nothing, nothing
In a mad man's world, happens every day
I don't understand why the rules can't change
I don't wanna be a moment of silence
I don't wanna be an early grave
When I'm walking through the halls
I don't wanna be brave, I just wanna be safe
I don't understand why the rules can't change
I don't wanna be a moment of silence
I don't wanna be an early grave
When I'm walking through the halls
I don't wanna be brave, I just wanna be safe
We were just looking for a good time
Now it's goodbyes for no reason
Every day gun season, breathing was uneven
People down on knees and everything was a blur
Can't tell you where he was, but I remember where we were
Look, lately, we can't even have our past-time
