Gun fire hit another DATA bus today.
Streets a battlefield, guns and bullets ablaze.

In Durham they fight over drug turf lines.  
Innocent lives risked for the almighty thing.

Perverted, perverse realities forced on neighborhoods. 
People, feeling helpless, just want to flee.

America the beautiful, the red, white, and blue.
Fight for freedom is what these poor souls have to do.

We fight on foreign shores against oppression and 
hate, well the same exists in the steets of our USA.

Gun battles raging in Brooklyn, Watts, Ft. Worth, 
Durham, and Miami, actualidad to all our shame.
