Текст песни The Ballad Of Ronald Timbers

He was just one more dead on a long long list of names

Fifteen-year-old Ronald Timbers was buried under dirt and blame

A mother needing help instead a trigger-happy system took aim

Took the life of her child and gave no answers

To the questions of force used with lethal intention

Could their cruel intervention

Be justified to the family or the further community?

In Philadelphia there's a mural of a fallen cop

It's making the news some local youth got their hands on some cans

Let loose with the spray paint now they got to be stopped

It's true the violent loss of a life is always such tragedy

But the city don't honor those that it's killingThe 241ers - The Ballad Of Ronald Timbers - http://ru.motolyrics.com/the-241ers/the-ballad-of-ronald-timbers-lyrics.html

So forgive our frustrations at these gross violations

Their rationalization of killing doesn't wash with me it's true

We bury our dead now

At the funerals the heads bow

Across the land a war ensues

It's on the streets

No justice or peace

We die on our knees

It's a critical need we have for restraint

And those guns aren't their right so take away their weapons

He was just one more dead on a long long list of names
