[Intro]
Why don't you say what's real, say what's real
Say something
Why don't you say what's real, say what's real
Say something
[Verse 1]
Uh, look
I didn’t grow up in a neighborhood that’s plagued by violence
But I was taught that if you see a problem don’t leave silence
And yeah I thought that maybe I could speak my mind a bit
Cause if the issues in a race well this the finalist
I grew up watching things on TV that’s like Sandy Hook
They show a father on the screen and they’re like man he’s shook
Well I can’t deal and I been having problems sleeping
It seems like it’s every day we turn the channel and they’re weeping
What’s the world need a gun for?
You wanna shoot somebody or shoot something you better not
And now those kids won’t see the sun more (they won't)
Cause you been hunting on the weekends and that life is what they never got (no!)
So just like Sarah Palin thinks she's got the answers I would beg to differ
You say it’s safety but you don’t deliver
Go look at numbers or look in the mirror
It’s people dying and you indirectly are the killers
[Chorus]
Why don't you say what's real, say what's real
Say something
Why don't you say what's real, say what's real
Say something
Why don't you say what's real, say what's real
Say something
Why don't you say what's real, say what's real
Say something
