American Skin [41 Shots] lyrics

41 shots

41 shots

41 shots

41 shots

41 shots

41 shots

41 shots

41 shots....

and we'll take that ride

'cross this bloody river

to the other side

41 shots... cut through the night

You're kneeling over his body in the vestibule

Praying for his life

Is it a gun, is it a knife

Is it a wallet, this is your life

It ain't no secret

(It ain't no secret)

It ain't no secret

(It ain't no secret)

No secret my friend

You can get killed just for living in

Your American skin

41 shots

41 shots

41 shots

41 shots

41 shots and

Lena gets her son ready for school

She says "on these streets, Charles

You've got to understand the rules

If an officer stops you

Promise me you'll always be polite,

that you'll never ever run away

Promise Mama you'll keep your hands in sight"

Is it a gun, is it a knife

Is it a wallet, this is your life

It ain't no secret

It ain't no secret

No secret my friend

You can get killed just for living in

Your American skin

41 shots

41 shots

41 shots

41 shots

(music bit)

41 shots

41 shots

41 shots

41 shots

Is it a gun, is it a knife

Is it in your heart, is it in your eyes

It ain't no secret

(It ain't no secret)

It ain't no secret

(It ain't no secret)

It ain't no secret

(It ain't no secret)

41 shots

And we'll take that ride

Cross this bloody river

To the other side

41 shots

I've got my boots caked in this mud

We're baptized in these waters

(baptized in these waters)

And in each other's blood

(And in each other's blood)

Is it a gun, is it a knife

Is it a wallet, this is your life

It ain't no secret

It ain't no secret

(It ain't no secret)

It ain't no secret

(It ain't no secret)

No secret my friend

You can get killed just for living in

You can get killed just for living in

You can get killed just for living in

You can get killed just for living in

You can get killed just for living in

Your American Skin

(41 shots)You can get killed just for living in

(41 shots)You can get killed just for living in

(41 shots)You can get killed just for living in

(41 shots)You can get killed just for living in

(41 shots)You can get killed just for living in

(41 shots)You can get killed just for living in
