kids get high in the basement sometimes
and tell themselves not to watch the screens
it's the blood that haunts me
i can't fall asleep
'cause it's ruthless
and don't tell me you're ruthless too
when there is blood on the streets of baltimore
kids are getting ready for a long war
maybe i was born in the wrong skin
but those sheep are rolling in the mud again
oh
it haunts me
tell me it haunts you too
you cut it up
you cut it up
but it's still the red white and the blue
you cut it up
you cut it up
but it's still the red white and the blue
wasted
in the tangles of time
and my baby
is she the only one left when it's dire?
she said a change is gonna come
but it's all on us
'cause it's ruthless and don't tell me you're ruthless too
when there is blood on the streets of baltimore
kids are getting ready for a long war
maybe i was born in the wrong skin
but those sheep are rolling in the mud again
oh
it haunts me
tell me it haunts you too
you cut it up
you cut it up
but it's still the red white and the blue
you cut it up
you cut it up
but it's still the red white and the blue
when there is blood on the streets of baltimore
kids are getting ready for a long war
maybe i was born in the wrong skin
but those sheep are rolling in the mud again
oh
it haunts me
tell me it haunts you too
oh
it haunts me 'cause their freedom was paid in blood
you cut it up
you cut it up
but it's still the red white and the blue
you cut it up
you cut it up
but it's still the red white and the blue
