Guns
(united by sound)
oh I am taking chances, leaving behind,
what I feel is done
because it's not like every day goes by
where I know not what I've sung
it's like a wave you ride, till sun goes down
that flows back into the blue
but running against the tide has brought me down
I know that I need the truth, so
don't you preach to me you liar
don't you hold me back
I'll raise my hands and stop your fire
don't need no guns on my back
oh I am worried much as I can be
their guns locked with their badge
but as a listener I hear them speak
my words don't seem to catch
oh we don't need no teacher to condem who we are
as we so patiently do and have done
but demand has never brought me down
this legacy will stay true, ooh
don't you preach to me you liar
don't you hold me back
I'll raise my hands and stop your fire
don't need no guns on my back
