Lyrics

Weapons and guns, are they really my rights? Laws written a long time ago No one could imagine the sight Of so many dead on the floor Hey God, if you're still there Would you please come down? Hey God, if you're still there Would you please come down? So what do you really have in mind for us now? We know that you're not on our side A few words of wisdom written down Ain't enough to sustain us anymore Hey God, if you're still there Would you please come down? Hey God, if you're still there Would you please come down? We can't take it no more Some cannot live inside the law Not much has changed here at all I see the sun's really going down This is not the Garden of Eden for sure Hey God, if you're still there Would you please come down? Hey God, if you're still there Would you please come down? We can't take it here anymore We can't take it no more
