lyrics

aiming in their sights at the other criminals
these gangsters with badges
lowriding mafioso
I said it takes one to know one
two sides of the same coin
accustomed to taking bribes
blinding the eyes of the wise
and perverts the words of the righteous
distorting justice
the gangs and governance
there's no difference
warrantless on wires
they're inside spying
but backfire could bullseye outside
the intended target
crimes committed by these criminals
but the innocents are catching the stray bullets
crimes committed by these criminals
but the innocents are catching the stray bullets
by definition
Stray bullets
could only catch the innocent
guilty finger pointing trigger
and pulling it
sitting stooping outside my building
viewing at street level
I see the military recruiting
the poor and unfortunate
spreading their disease
they ship them overseas to liberate
with heavy artillery to motivate
free elections?
in demonstration of democracy
a symphony of hypocrisy & heresy
those daily on the sidewalk
standing by innocently
slugs without the time to duck
they never saw it coming
they never felt no need
for a kevlar vest
and neither was it budgeted
it's injustice when innocents
inherently attract the stray bullets
and it's just as indiscriminate
as the preemptive attacks led by the U.S.
by definition
stray bullets
could only catch the innocent
guilty finger pointing trigger
and pulling it
Father hear them nightly
praying protection
to assign angelic generals
guard in all directions
let the strays deflect and ricochet
fall away 'til the day wicked hearts change or become struck down
that their destruction is ended
ain't insignificant
stray bullets
could only catch the innocent
guilty finger pointing trigger
and pulling it
