Shooting to Kill

i used to cry, it's the way i would feel
my mom would smile and say it's just an earthquake drill
now there's nothing natural about it, the disaster is real
they're all shooting at nothing but they're shooting to kill
they're all shooting at nothing but they're shooting to kill

have a good day at school kid, good luck on your test
mama packed you a lunch and a bullet proof vest
now there's nothing natural about it, the disaster is real
they're all shooting at nothing but they're shooting to kill
they're all shooting at nothing but they're shooting to kill

if we put down our guns, step away from our screens
pick up our kids and teach 'em something
cause there's something natural about that
we're all someone's daughter or son
i'm not saying it's the answer, but it sure won't kill anyone
