No guns allowed

Black blood in the veins

This song was written by Snoop Lion, his daughter Cori B and Drake and it was directed by Jelly Terrero. The song itself is a very important message against violence. This song especially talks about the childrens who were killed at the elementary school by a delinquent who, after that, killed his father and wanted to kill the mother who taught at the school where he killed the childrens. The age of the childrens who lost their lives in the massacre includes from 6 to 7 years. Instead, the murderer was 24 years old and he had four different weapons. In our opinion, this was one of the most traumatic massacre ever. Nowdays, in this world many people have no soul, and there's no difference a between adults, seniors and children. Now you have no longer respect for anyone, always hope to have a better world tomorrow. The sentence in the lyrics that struck us most in this song is: "Bullets do not choose a victim/it is the shooter that picks' em".

Lyrics

Money makes a man and that's a crime
If we all were rich, we'd spend more time
With our daughters and sons, they're losing their minds
We all feel hurt, here's mine, hear me now

Cause, no guns are allowed, in here tonight
We're gonna have a free-for-all, no fights
I wanna get lost in the crowd, in here tonight
I need to hear my thoughts, turn the music up loud

Let the music play, me don't want no more gunplay
When the bodies hit the ground, there's nothing left to say, ay, ay
Me don't want to see no more innocent blood shed
Me don't want to see no more youth dead
Come hear me now

Cause, no guns are allowed, in here tonight
We're gonna have a free-for-all, no fights
I wanna get lost in the crowd, in here tonight
I need to hear my thoughts, turn the music up loud

Yeah, yeah, yeah, news from back home
This when it hurts to be gone
Two more young names to be carved out of stone
One summer day that went horribly wrong
Got my dawg on the phone
Cryin' and sayin' to leave him alone, but I'm not leavin' his side
I know that somebody died, somebody's child
Some people ducked down and some people hide
Some people just cannot react in time
Bullets do not choose a victim
It is the shooter that picks 'em
They just can't wait to get you in the system
The district attorney could use a conviction
Told you no guns and then you didn't listen
Life is so heavy with that on your soul
Dedicate this to Shyanne and Josh
And pour sumthin' out for the lives that they stole

Cause, no guns are allowed, in here tonight
We're gonna have a free for all, no fights
I wanna get lost in the crowd, in here tonight
I need to hear my thoughts, turn the music up loud

Money makes a man and that's a crime
Money makes a man and that's a crime
I wanna get lost in the crowd, in here tonight
