Another day inside a box beside the liquor shop Where the music on the outpass play I pour a bowl of Cheerios and turn on my stereo And watch the people come and go away And there’s a girl out on the street Ain’t got no shoes upon her feet And a man on the corner selling loose sneaks Same shit but you know what they say Run from the man and you’ll never get away Bang bang
Feel the tremble underneath my feet See the smoke from my window There’s a riot on the downtown scene We’ve seen this all before Shots fired at the protest line Sing for rights of the people All the messages is clear this time right They’ll be back tomorrow Bang bang Bang bang Bang bang Bang bang
So I jump in my ride flasking Henney by my side And just nod my head to the beat I see the same corner man all shot up on the ground Cause he dared to find the police A fire engine is bursting Parents crying and cursing Now where is the God among men I got a pocket full of napalm You can run but you’ll never get away Bang bang
Feel the tremble underneath my feet See the smoke from my window There’s a riot on the downtown scene We’ve seen this all before Shots fired at the protest line Sing for rights of the people All the messages is clear this time right They’ll be back tomorrow Bang bang Bang bang Bang bang Bang bang
Oh, God only knows God only knows What they want from me Oh, God only knows God only knows What they want from me Oh, God only knows God only knows What they want from me Oh, God only knows God only knows God only–God only knows
Feel the tremble underneath my feet See the smoke from my window There’s a riot on the downtown scene We’ve seen this all before Shots fired at the protest line Sing for rights of the people All the messages is clear this time right They’ll be back tomorrow Bang bang Bang bang Bang bang Bang bang Bang bang
