GUN
Gun you are powerful and strong
You are mighty, a soul of steel
You have no life of your own
But become monstrous , in the hands of wrong.
I was a child, full of life and play
Finest creation, of youth and beauty
By the creator of all,
Put to end by a mad man’s bullet.
I had a Dream, of Love and Peace
I had a dream to make my parents smile
I had a dream, to walk on the red carpet
Put to end by a mad man’s bullet.
I had a dream to skip and jump
To soak in the rain and play snow balls
To dance in spring and sing in summer
Put to an end by a mad man’s bullet.
I had a dream to grow up strong and powerful
To build businesses and eradicate poverty
To do research and bring in good health
Put to an end by a mad man’s bullet.
I had a dream to chase the squirrels
To feed the birds and listen to their Divine song
To caress my cat and walk my dog
Put to an end by a mad man’s bullet
Oh , Gun , what have done , what have you done,taken a life so young and innocent.
You don’t need to be in every nook and corner
You were born for a greater purpose
For peace and the rule of law.
Oh Gun, whose blood is there on your barrel
Oh it’s mine own,
All my dreams
Put to an end by a mad man’s bullet.
