Everyone out there lives to protect their own

They say that we are free but we’re locked in our homes

The city drugstore on the White House lawn

Lives been wasted how they’ve come and gone

Believe me, nobody cares



Friend was shot down on a street near mine

He was a victim of the wrong place & time

Lock your doors & windows from the man outside

Why do we live like this why do we run & hide

Believe me, nobody cares



Let us out of our homes

My hopes and dreams are fading

Let us out of our homes

'Cause I’m still here waiting



Bullets flying out of passing cars

Children crying they won’t lose their scars

How long will this game go on before you go

Your number comes up living in a war zone

Believe me, nobody cares



It starts with you & me

Standing tall

No time for closed minds they’re gonna end it all

You watch my door man

And I’ll watch yours

What happened to the good old days

Like it was before

Believe me, nobody cares



Let us out of our homes

My hopes and dreams are fading

Let us out of our homes

'Cause I’m still here waiting



Nobody cares.
