Violence Breeds - Pathos

Red light districts breed younger victims

That pay with life to survive

Asphalt children play by their own laws

And suburbs give into crime

A new plague is running our streets and stunning

Our world that once were alive

Panic’s spreading in ruins laying

The homes of the hardworking man

Weapons needed protect and feed it

Act normal and under control

Shotgun justice and we have lost it

As the child shoots the gun

Our fear it feeds

Violence breeds

Drive by shootings puts the neighbourhood

Into war that spreads like a fire

Three strikes then out the system can’t fail

Policemen fighting their doubts

Red light districts breed younger victims

That pay with life to survive

Asphalt children play by their own laws

And suburbs give into crime

A new plague is running our streets and stunning

Our world that once were alive

Panics spreading in ruins laying

The homes of the hardworking man

Our fear it feeds

Violence breeds
