Enough is Enough when it comes to Gang Violence.
Chorus:
Racism - Enough is Enough
Gang Violence - Enough is Enough
Murder - Enough is Enough
Why can't we see it - Enough is Enough
Lyrics:
Out on the streets, where violence is booming
Young kids with guns are dying and loosing
It's out in the hood, where they all think that they're hot
It's out in the hood, where they all be getting shot
One after another, with blood on their hands
Uprising vengeance, in each of their clans
But now Satan, the devil, moves quickly on his prey
And showing no mercy, to the astray
He's bringing them down, with condemnation
And leaving no hope, for any Salvation
Don't even have to guess what's next, because you know
The devil will come and try to tear down your soul
Division, is what he's pushing, to separate us
He's tearing us out, from the inside out - no doubt
And check it on out, and pull the Bible off your shelf
A house that is divided cannot stand up by itself
Young kids today are trapped in the violence
Possessing the big guns, and destroying the silence
* Boom * Klickity * Boom * The enemy's there.
* Boom * Boom * Klickity * Boom * The bullets hit the air
* Boom * Boom * Klickity * Boom * There's violence everywhere
* Boom * Boom * Klickity * Boom * No one cares.
Go stick those Bibles, up in the air
And start proclaiming God's Word everywhere
Help stop the violence that lies in the streets
And fill each corner with the Word of His peace
Jesus Christ is serious when He said in His Word;
Go and make disciples, of those in the earth
The cold shoulder is what they show ya and then ya wonder
They're taking him down and breaking him down and making him go under
They want peace and fake peace
But do not want to make peace
Cause ya can't get a dime
Out of peacetime
They go back and sell drugs
To little kids and street thugs
They know that it's wrong
But they do it anyway
Pick up the nine - boom boom, and shoot him down (huh)
Then ya got to run, hide, and leave town
Can't trust a soul..man this is getting old
inside..yo your heart has grown cold
Don't need a job got their girls on welfare
Taking someone's money can't ya see that's it's not fare
Wake up and realize, the world is dead
Enough is enough, just like I said
You'd rather die yourself, then to trust those authorities
Go and tell your story, you're not boring me
Because I accept you, for who you are
And if you want to talk it out, and I am far,
Then talk it out with God, He's near when it's rough
We can't go on, Enough is Enough.
