Our children shouldn’t have to run from bullets

Ain't no way that I will let a viral threat

Make me forget that in which I suspect is the reason that I could check

All media outlets see the globe in a panic

I wonder how we under but never could overstand it

A day before corona hit I read a article that read 200 shootings in Chicago predicted for tomorrow

But what I didn't see was politicians all over the screen talking bout a vaccine that stops kids from getting hit with them hollows

Are them bodies in Baltimore less important cause they poor

That don't call for a uproar

It’s not an emergency when ya boy could count more, people that died from guns without going off to war

We added up the numbers from ghettos from across America

It’s more deaths than than this virus so where is all the hysteria

**** is social distancing we playing our part

But when it's over I hope that kids could play in the park

You know why

Our children shouldn’t have to run from bullets (nah)

Our children shouldn’t have to run from bullets (yeah man)

They seen too many mamas cry on the Southside

So many Nannas lose they grandsons to hand guns

I know we get a false pride from saying we outside

But from the speed of a bullet homie you can't run

Just imagine it if we don't get a grip on the establishment

Ya kid'll never get to be a graduate

When Someone put a gun to ya son head and he splatters it

You up in the hospital asking doctors how bad is it

Now is the incentive

I’m using this the poetry as a power its preventive shout out me in ya mentions

I ain’t trying to get deep I just scour other dimensions

Music is the cure and mine is pure as my intentions

These rappers use it as a damn gimmick

Us killing each other is worse than a pandemic some hurt you just can't mimic

My condolences go to everybody that lost one

So while you loading that gun

Listen to my song son

Our children shouldn’t have to run from bullets (no way no way)

Our children shouldn’t have to run from bullets (nah gotta change for real)
