[Verse 1]
Streets [D]are filled with violence,

Every time you turn your radio on,

Ain't it a shame?
Ain't it a shame?
Ain't it a shame?

the bloody battlefield yeah the fathers and
mothers are losing their sons don't know about
how they feel yeah the hearts are filled with sorrow
eyes are filled with tears yeah the wicked fighting
or to be stopped is going on through
Yeah, ain't it the same, ain't it the same,
