It's important to note it's crucial to approach such sensitive topics carefully, especially when addressing violence in schools. The lyrics below aim to critique the issues surrounding gun culture and violence in a constructive, thought-provoking way:

"Kids With Guns"

*Verse 1:*
They walk through the doors, bags heavy with weight,
No books in their hands, just a dark twist of fate.
They say they're prepared, they've learned from the best,
But what kind of lessons put hearts to the test?

*Pre-Chorus:*
We tell them to grow, to be brave, to be strong,
But who's there to tell them this way is all wrong?

*Chorus:*
Kids with guns, marching into school,
Thinking that's the way to take care of the cruel.
If we don't change the story, if we don’t change the tune,
We'll lose them all under a blood-red moon.

*Verse 2:*
They’re dealing with pressure, they’re lost in the noise,
Nobody’s listening, just some broken toys.
The problems pile up, but the answers don't come,
Now they feel that bullets speak louder than some.

*Pre-Chorus:*
We’re asking for peace, but we hand them the blame,
When will we wake up and end this twisted game?

*Chorus:*
Kids with guns, marching into school,
Thinking that's the way to take care of the cruel.
If we don't change the story, if we don’t change the tune,
We'll lose them all under a blood-red moon.

*Bridge:*
No more violence, no more pain,
We need to break this endless chain.
If we don't stop and see what's wrong,
It won't be long 'til they're all gone.

*Chorus:*
Kids with guns, marching into school,
Thinking that's the way to take care of the cruel.
If we don't change the story, if we don’t change the tune,
We'll lose them all under a blood-red moon.

*Outro:*
Put down the weapons, pick up a hand,
We’ve got to teach love, so they understand.

The song is written to shine a light on the tragic and misguided ways kids might feel compelled to solve their problems with violence, while also calling out the system that lets these situations spiral. It pushes for understanding and compassion, asking for real solutions to break the cycle.
