HOW CAN THIS BE (Krena Dean)
- 4 years ago
Another young life ends in the gutter
A mother grieves the loss of her son
But they'll say he was 'some kind of nutter'
To justify the Law of the Gun.
I hear the words of Abraham Lincoln
I wonder what he'd make of today?
His people cry but no-one will listen
And City Hall will turn them away
The Powers That Be have made their decision
'No case to answer' that's all they'll say.
I hear the words of Abraham Lincoln
I wonder what he'd make of today?
United, now divided by
Bloodstains on the sidewalk
How can this be?
In the Land of the Free.
Another young life ends in the gutter
A mother grieves the loss of her son
How can this be?
In the Land of the Free.
How can this be?
