Your gun cost me my father
Your gun cost me my wife
Your gun cost me my brother
Your gun cost me my life
Your gun cost me my uncle
Your gun cost me my niece
Your gun cost me my nephew
Your gun cost me my peace
Your gun cost me my daughter
Your gun cost me my son
Your gun took everything from me
But you've still got your gun
Your gun cost me my parents
Your gun cost me my friend
Your gun cost me my sister
Your gun cost me my children
Your gun cost me my Country
Your gun cost me my home
Your gun cost me my mother
You gun cost me all I know
Your gun cost me my whole world
Your gun cost me everyone
Your gun took everything from me
But you've still got your gun
Your gun cost me my office Your gun cost me my boss Your gun cost me my synagogue Your gun cost me my mosque Your gun cost me my high school Your gun cost me my church Your took away all the light and left only the hurt Sometimes I can’t believe that these crimes can still be done Your gun takes everything from us, but you’ve still got your fucking gun
