How many people die
Everyday to a piece of plastic
How many people die
Everyday to a piece
If only we had peace
I wish one day we’d all love each other
Why does one organization just want to give an excuse for everything
I wish they were not right after all

NRA
What’s the excuse for Vegas
We saw the excuse for the Sandy
We saw it for Columbine
We saw it for Virginia
One day they’ll be not right after all
Until then,
We have trouble
Trouble on the street
Protecting our 2nd amendment
What about our right to be alive
Our right to breathe
Our right to not be shot or killed
Where is that amendment
What about those 58 people
Why did this have to happen
Where were their amendments on living

NRA
What’s your excuse
For the deaths of those 58 people
How will you excuse guns for this
There is no excuse for this
People are dying
It’s not an opinion
It’s a fact that these guns are making violence a larger thing than it was without guns
A quicker way to ****
All you need to do is pull the trigger
To take away a life, to ruin a life
This man took away 58 lives with just the pull of a trigger
Not multiple pulls but just one
Why, why does it take just one to cause so much destruction
It’s like an eruption, so much chaos in the crowd

NRA
What are you doing to prevent these things from happening
Did the founders expect these weapons of mass destruction
Bullets that exploded
Guns that made no noise
Children died
Children are still dying
What’s your excuse
For these deaths
For these 500 plus people injured
False truths that this time will be different
We’ll change our ways
Change our laws
To make sure this never happens again
All lies
Will we ever change?
Will we ever break this cycle of death?

NRA
What’s your excuse?
