Dateline, early Sunday morning
Shots ring out without a warning
No one seems to even blink in this town
Two dead and a baby missing
Sirens screaming in the distance
A mother pleading, "Bring my baby home now"
For the pink slip of an SUV
A night cut down in tragedy
His defense another generation breakdown
Yeah, yeah
What is the distance
Between a bullet and a gun?
God, are you listening
Or have you just given up?
Corporate countries got to war
Behind the lies they're fighting for
And black gold from an old king's soul won this round
How can someone take a life
In the name of God and say it's right?
How does money lead to greed
When there's still hungry mouths to feed?
Yeah, yeah
What is the distance
Between a bullet and a gun?
God, are you listening
Or have you just given up?
We need forgiveness
We all need a lot of love
We need some hope, we need it now
A little faith, man help me out
I'll learn to pray but it's too late now
Yeah, yeah
What is the distance
Between a bullet and a gun?
God, are you listening
Or have you just given up?
What is the distance
Between a bullet and a gun?
We need forgiveness
We all need a lot of love
A lot of love, yeah
