Drop the Weapon

Everybody shouting, working up a sweat

Stepping over lines, you know what happened next

More trouble, than anyone can use

It's a pre-determined thing, you lose your right to choose

No way to turn it around

You got no more time, no time to calm yourself down

Once you press the button man it's coming to a head

Pretty soon babe you'll be a long time dead

Little brother I'm telling you now

Your pride can take a hit

Little brother take a deep breath

Cool off man, forget about it

Drop the weapon

Kick it away

Drop your gun

Look the other way

Drop the weapon

Live another day

Drop your blade

Listen, to what I say

Who you trying to impress, you making a bid

To be a big shot brother, but you're just a small kid

Now your reputation got a minor stain

It'll be washed away by tomorrow's rain

Little brother I'm telling you now

Your pride can take a hit

Little brother take a deep breath

Cool off man, forget about it

Drop the weapon

Kick it away

Drop your gun

Look the other way

Drop the weapon

Live another day

Drop your blade

Listen, to what I say

No sound of silence

Just streets of violence

We're in overload

Wrong side of the road

Oh San Francisco

Where the hell did you go

We have enough of that

Peace and love

Drop the weapon

Kick it away

Drop your gun

Look the other way

Drop the weapon

Live another day

Drop your blade

Listen, to what I say

No sound of silence

Just streets of violence

We're in overload

Wrong side of the road

Oh San Francisco

Where the hell did you go

We have enough of that

Peace and love

Come and hold my hand

Then we can all stand

And say a prayer

To someone out there

Anyone out there
