Safe

[Intro: Sage & Kesha]

In a mad man's world, happens every day

I don't understand why the rules can't change

I don't wanna be a moment of silence

I don't wanna be an early grave

When I'm walking through the halls

I don't wanna be brave, I just wanna be safe

[Verse 1: CHIKA]

We were just looking for a good time

Now it's goodbyes for no reason

Every day gun season, breathing was uneven

People down on knees and everything was a blur

Can't tell you where he was, but I remember where we were

Look, lately, we can't even have our past-time

We leave our homes and wonder if it'll be our last time

[Chorus: Sage & Kesha]

If I die before I wake, please forgive all my mistakes

Know that I was gonna stand for something, something, something

I've got so much life to live, and I've got so much love to give

Please don't take it all for nothing, nothing, nothing, nothing

[Post-Chorus: Sage & Kesha]

In a mad man's world, happens every day

I don't understand why the rules can't change

I don't wanna be a moment of silence

I don't wanna be an early grave

When I'm walking through the halls

I don't wanna be brave, I just wanna be safe

[Verse 2: CHIKA]

Yeah, politicians only slight work

Tell me, what is my life worth?

Mamas look at babies sayin' bye while they in diapers

Used to be afraid of snipers, Boogie Man, Pied Piper

Now we in the street, afraid of rifles

They end up in the wrong hands

Say we shouldn't ban all

Does the right to bear arms trump the right to stand tall?

'Cause the money green as foliage in cemeteries

People up in power cool with laws remaining sedentary

Think I've had enough of it, done just putting up with it

We gotta make a difference, we won't let 'em take another kid

I'm done with it

[Chorus: Sage & Kesha]

If I die before I wake, please forgive all my mistakes

Know that I was gonna stand for something, something, something

I've got so much life to live, and I've got so much love to give

Please don't take it all for nothing, nothing, nothing, nothing

[Post-Chorus: Sage & Kesha]

In a mad man's world, happens every day

I don't understand why the rules can't change

I don't wanna be a moment of silence

I don't wanna be an early grave

When I'm walking through the halls

I don't wanna be brave, I just wanna be safe
