about

"I believe a gun has no power at all. Because a gun can only kill. But a pen can give life. A pen can save life." - Malala Yousaafzai

lyrics

back in my day, school was a safe place
save for the builles, throwing sticks, stones, and names in my face
fear and bullets no, they never crossed our minds,
teacher, tell us why, the guns a symbol of our time?

one move of a finger, can quickly take a life,
one pull of a trigger, defines our modern strive,
oh what is it, that these senseless fools desire?
teacher tell us why, these shots are being fired?

leave those guns alone
take them from the streets, the schools, the home
burn them down to the bone,
get rid of them, make them gone.

well, war is a business that belongs someplace else
we're all turning wicked as we watch that ice melt
I'm hear to learn, not to fear for my life,
teacher will they shoot me,
if I look them in the eye.

leave those guns alone
take them from the streets, the schools, the home
burn them down to the bone,
get rid of them, make them gone.
