They do not kill by strangers.
They do not tase by they of danger.
They could only be used against criminals that sing.
By the ones who walk the straight line with the magic rings.
Death has been on my mind for many days now
Family of a family, friend of a friend
The good book does not tell you how
To peacefully pass in the very end
They do not kill by strangers.
They do not tase by they of danger.
They could only be used against criminals that sing.
By the ones who walk the straight line with the magic rings.
We have come a long way now
From Apollo to Broadband
My smart phone that I now hold in my hand
Someday might get us to Mars and Beyond
They do not kill by strangers.
They do not tase by they of danger.
They could only be used against criminals that sing.
By the ones who walk the straight line with the magic rings.
Been a cold winter, for that it has been a deadly year
2020 the year where time stopped, not a human to be seen
Masks, living distance to distance both far and near
Maybe in 2021 we could once again become clean and clear
They do not kill by strangers.
They do not tase by they of danger.
They could only be used against criminals that sing.
By the ones who walk the straight line with the magic rings.
Racism in the courtrooms, violence in the street
Don’t’ know the enemy where you lie under their feet
Protect and serve no more only shouts from the people on the sidewalk
Brave soldiers with guilt and sadness who just want to talk
They do not kill by strangers.
They do not tase by they of danger.
They could only be used against criminals that sing.
By the ones who walk the straight line with the magic rings.
Still some heroes left guarding the country’s leaders
Death is their mission, but we will not forget
How they stopped the rioters in the house of laws, with no regrets
Or how one stopped a madman with a knife at the border of nets
They do not kill by strangers.
They do not tase by they of danger.
They could only be used against criminals that sing.
By the ones who walk the straight line with the magic rings.
So, when are we going to get a gun that does not kill?
Then we could send all the deadly firearms to the recycle mill
A gun where only the user could use with his own will
We are waiting Congress for that magical life changing bill
They do not kill by strangers.
They do not tase by they of danger.
They could only be used against criminals that sing.
By the ones who walk the straight line with the magic rings.

Your dream of an electronic gun like those in science fiction, may be on the way, but guns that fire deadly bullets will be around for very long time because almost everyone with more than one gun in the house claims to be collecting museum pieces like 50 caliber machine guns from World War I that they won't hesitate to use on SWAT when it comes to visit.
