d.r.a. (rapper) - 17 (demo version) lyrics
“seventeen”, said sources, “at least seventeen people dead”
another buzzing gnat of tragedy meanders by your head
you wave an ineffective hand, a short performative endeavor
to save the thoughts and prayers for now and save the time to act for never
never’s such a final word, like ‘they will never see tomorrow’
the time you want us all to wait just don’t exist for them to borrow
yet you take another breath, and still more crimson-stained donations
‘cause that really is the depth that we’ve descended as a nation
but as you take in all that air, and all those millions for your silence
every conscience-having soul knows you’re complicit in this violence
yet you’ll sleep just like a babe, at peace while riding bloodied waves
of those who’d rather sell more weapons than keep children from their graves
and so you speak in tired tones, push tired lies with tired eyes
you say fake words that resonate with angry, out-of-touch white guys
and you hide behind amendments, and you stoke the flames of hate
and you speak of god and heaven like they’d let you through the gate
but you’re blind to your own evil, like mosquitos with west nile
keep wreaking havoc on this world and adding bodies to the pile
(seventeen) is just another drop of blood into an ocean
full of victims of your greed and our obsessive gun devotion
but the notion that this cost is just the price of being free
is an atrocious lie that truly shows your lack of decency
so before you send more thoughts or prayers, count every blood-soaked dollar
and if you don’t send each one back, you piece of sh-t – don’t even bother
