Violence Songtext
I hear the sirens
My heart is silent
I can't breathe

Everything was quiet
I wasn't aching
Now all I see
Is the violence

Oh, violence
All the violence
All I see
All the violence
(All the violence)
Oh, this violence
(My people pushing up violets)
Oh, the violence
(Everyday nothing ever change)
All I see

Mama
They don't give a damn 'bout what was taken
(All the violence)
(Everyday nothing new will change)
Mama
They don't give a damn 'bout what was taken
(All the violence)
(Everyday nothing)

You've seen the riots
Stuck to your guns
Your grass still green
So why are we crying

Well, I see police
And I see us dying
Tell us to freeze
Giving us violence

Oh, violence
All the violence
All I see

Mama
They don't give bout what was taken
(All the violence)
(Everyday nothing new will change)

Mama
They don't give bout what was taken
(All the violence)
(Everyday nothing new will change)

One love
How it feel singing lies
What's been done in the past
You deny, you deny
Young blood
'Nother stain in the night
Want us paying for peace
Then you beg us to fight
One love
How it feel singing lies
What's been done in the past
You deny, you deny
Young blood
'Nother stain in the night
Want us paying for peace
Then you beg us to fight
C'mon
All the violence
(Everyday nothing new will change)
My people pushing up violets
All the violence
(Everyday nothing new will change)
