Hand Over Your Guns

[Adil Omar - Verse 1] I taste the dust clouds, the drum sounds, the guns are now a friend to me Eventually, I'll self destruct, but tonight I'll crush the enemy With all my heart and all my might, and all I know that's wrong is right I'm trained to kill, to maim at will, a soldier - I was born to fight An armored knight, some day I will escape from all these chains at will Account for all this pain I've spilled, I question to this day until I Until I know that this road I chose - never go back It takes a toll on my soul and I know I'm cold and my hope stands - so low. I'm drowning in a river standing frozen in a chilling breeze A killing field where countless mothers cry and widows grieve A future sinking in the blood of all the children bleeding The aftermath from all the horrors of a killing season Yet there's still a reason, I gotta set it right Your people see me as a monster, I was sent to fight My people see me as a martyr, facing death in sight A false glory as I take my final breath tonight [Everlast - Hook] Once you've finished up your run And everything is over and done Before you hand over your guns Listen son, it's a long way home And once you really open your eyes And know for sure the sun's gon' rise What's certain is, every man dies Ain't no lies, its a long way home [Adil Omar - Verse 2] I taste the dust clouds, the drum sounds, I know this wasn't meant to be Eventually, I'll self destruct, but it's like you'll be the death of me My evening moon, my morning sun you healed me when the scars had come You stayed through all the battles lost and held me through the wars I'd won You gave me all the strength I needed, built me up to all I've been And sacrificed it all to be with, God knows what you saw in me I told you that it won't be easy, wished that it was all a dream Can't justify the things I've done or forget about the things I've seen - I put no human being, deity or god above you So even if the sky should crumble, I will always love you I've seen my faith collapse, they tried to turn it all to rubble You gave me hope although this journey's been a constant struggle It's like we're all in trouble, trying to find comfort and solace In a disaster, we're just fighting what this all builds up to My only will to live and reason to win is I may never even see you again [Everlast - Hook x3] Once you've finished up your run And everything is over and done Before you hand over your guns Listen son, it's a long way home And once you really open your eyes And know for sure the sun's gon' rise What's certain is, every man dies Ain't no lies, its a long way home [Adil Omar - Bridge x3] I heard the angels sing They went
