Call the cops I heard about 5 shots
Down the block they yelling boom a blod clot
All through the town street walkers hit the hot ground
Get down he's letting off another round
Click click bullet in the chamber
Who is he to take the life of a stranger?
Danger, gun smoke for his anger
A criminal dirty gang banger
Drag 'em off in, laying on the creepin'
It's like a bad dream, but I am not sleepin'
What's the reason?
No room for breathing
Put down your gun, this ain't hunting season
Run run somebody pulled a gun gun
Run run somebody pulled a gun gun
Run run somebody is a shootin'
Run run we need a solution
[x2]
He tried to step in using his weapon
He comes around when no one's expectin'
Why the; fussin' and a fightin'
Wearing red, white and blue when he is a strikin'
On and on and who's up in the scorin'
Bang bang bang bullets went a soarin'
Don't be a doubter, be a problem solver
Use your mind and not a blind revolver
We got to stop him, he's got the problem
Wants all the power, down we need to lock him
Shootin', burnin' and a lootin'
Unjust the people, society pollutin'
Run run somebody pulled a gun gun
Run run somebody pulled a gun gun
Run run somebody is a shootin'
Run run we need a revolution
[x2]
Out of control, like moojoo wonton
Bob Marley said, Johnny was a good mon
What's it going to take to stop the silence?
What's it going take to stop the senseless violence?
The sheriff got shot and the deputy too
Watch out watch out cuz the next could be you
You got to run away there's no time to play
You got to run away it might be your last day
Run run somebody pulled a gun gun
Run run somebody pulled a gun gun
Run run somebody is a shootin'
Run run we need a solution
[x2]
