Lyrics My Land (Live) - Verde

What's wrong with these people today
The shootings and stabbings and lootings they're grabbing more headlines everyday
Just last night I watched I riot I seen the cops out on the street
With their batons and shooting folks methodical and neat

Decades of corpses in the gutters
These towns are filled with Death
How many years can this go on
Until nobody's left
Children born in smoke and fire
Broken glass and more barbed wire
Ancient fights forged in their minds
Killing over holy shrines
Stories worsen as they're told
Lifeless shells of 5 year olds
...and they say that peace is so close
But both sides don't know when
They're gonna break the calm
With another pipe bomb

And start it all again

When a punch in the face won't cut it
Then something's not quite right
There's some serious st going on downtown when the fires start to light
All full of hate and anger

But cant remember why
When hearts and minds are out for blood then someone's gonna die
Out for blood tonight

They're out for blood tonight
There's bullets whizzing by and screams echo into the night
All full of hate and anger
But cant remember why

When hearts and minds are out for blood then someone's gonna die
A woman begs for mercy
It echos through the night
Their eyes are stone, their hearts are cold
They're out for blood tonight
When hearts and minds are out for blood them someones gonna die.

What's wrong with these people today
The shootings and stabbings and lootings they're grabbing more headlines everyday
Just last night I watched I riot I seen the crowd swarming the street
Throwing rocks and shooting folks methodical and neat
Yeah
When a punch in the face won't cut it
Then something's not quite right
There's some serious shit going round downtown when the fires start to light
All full of hate and anger
But cant remember why
When hearts and minds are out for blood then someone's gonna die
A woman begs for mercy it echos in the night
Their eyes are stone, their hearts are cold
They're out for blood tonight
