Turn on the news, surprise surprise

Another asshole died and I just roll my eyes

It’s gonna make you numb, violence for fun

It’s our favorite sport, stay or run

Big city lights

Strangers in the night

I can smell a fight

Big city lights

Trouble left and right

I can see it black and white

Youth is getting restless, and someone’s gonna pay

Madness in the streets, hide your children away

Sirens in the distance, but it’s already too late

Deadly mix of poverty, ignorance and hate

Every time I walk the streets

I can feel their eyes scanning me

Are my colors right? Am I the right type?

Will I run away or put up a fight?
