Lyrics

it takes a fool to be free
I don’t care what I’ve heard I just don’t believe
safety’s dependent on daylight, yeah
a false accusation against the night

when you get shot in the face
’cause you happen to be gay
or born a different color or place

and they don’t need to use gun
words can also get it done
only option is to duck and run

I’m kickin’ and screamin’
’cause I don’t wanna see it, no
I’m kickin’ and screamin’
and I don’t wanna be here no more

so stick your head in the sand
I will wake you when we land
and I promise it’ll all be alright

and there’s no need for you to care
I’ll make sure to get us there
I’ll look out for you and yours tonight

hey you over there
with your head hanging low and thinking life’s unfair
if you give up without a fight, huh
then who is to say what is wrong or right

then you get shot in the face
’cause you had something say
someone thought you took up too much space

and it’s a constant fight
will we ever get it right
when stupidity gets all the light

I’m kickin’ and screamin’
’cause I don’t wanna see it, no
I’m kickin’ and screamin’
and I don’t wanna be here no more

so stick your head in the sand
I will wake you when we land
and I promise it’ll all be alright

and there’s no need for you to care
I’ll make sure to get us there
I’ll look out for you and yours tonight
