We don’t share your love of them.
They take lives of those we know.
They take futures of ones with much to give,
and who will never do so.
future scientist future nurse future leader in the universe,
future mother future wife future father future LIFE,
NONE of them are worth
all your fears of what you lose,
if we take AK-47s,
what the heck is that to you?
Hunting is a sport that you can do with bow and arrow
or a rifle, or a gun, but you don’t need rapid fire.
But I don’t need to convince you
because you will never change,
We will vote those out of office
who stand with the N.R.A.
So write it in your will
to be buried with your guns,
You can keep them there forever
buried with you 6 feet under,
Something is terribly wrong
when we can’t pass legislation
that is based on common sense
just to increase regulation,
To drive home after working,
you have passed a driver’s test,
and the tag on your license plate
says your car is registered,
but some disturbed and violent person
buys an AK at a gun show
and you don’t want a background check
to slow him down or make him wait.
And all those politicians
that you think are right behind you
will leave you in the dust
if the NRA stops funding.
This generation coming
watched their classmates fall before them,
and they see right through the veil
that is blinding your own vision,
But I don’t need to convince you
because you will never change,
We will vote those out of office
who stand with the N.R.A.
