The Dingees - Votes And Violence lyrics

They got me runnin' from 56 hope road Seems my world came crashin' down a moment ago I got this banner cross my back that says I'll be okay And save the dyin' for some other day When you're walkin' in my city you gotta duck and dive Cuz in the city bullets fly They put a gun in the hand of a juvenile When you look them in the eye things get wild Took a little detour down to washington boulevard Dreadlocks in the moonlight down in lee perry's yard I'm in the wrong place at the right time No longer in the line of fire now I'm stayin' alive Hit it hit it get ready to roll Your world's been fallin' down now it's startin to show You got your reasons hidden deep behind your eyes Your blowin' up mines crossin' over police lines They're gonna fight against us but they will not overcome No one's touchin' my life till my job gets done When you're walkin' in my city you gotta duck and dive Cuz in the city bullets fly They put a gun in the hand of a juvenile When you look them in the eye things get wild Now this bounty been placed upon my head What does it really mean if a man wants me dead? If I'm gunned down in the streets of trenchtown Will the people come around when they hear the sound?
