Black on black crime
Is what I see everyday, Somebody's baby is always taken away The sound of the gunshot, It rings in my ear I can only imagine how a mother feels, When someone tells her "Your baby is no longer here." We do this to each other. Why must we continue to hurt one another? Do the tears of the mothers mean nothing to you? Some people say: "Well, what can I do?" Unite! Stand up! Put the guns down It shouldn't make you feel good When you put another brother in the ground Black on black crime That's what I see everyday, And everyday I wish I could just... Turn away.
