2. Drop the Weapon (4:23)
Everybody shouting, working up a sweat
Stepping over lines, you know what happened next
More trouble, than anyone can use
It's a pre-determined thing, you lose your right to choose

No way to turn it around
You got no more time, no time to calm yourself down
Once you press the button man it's coming to a head
Pretty soon babe you'll be a long time dead

Little brother I'm telling you now
Your pride can take a hit
Little brother take a deep breath
Cool off man, forget about it

Drop the weapon
Kick it away
Drop your gun
Look the other way
Drop the weapon
Live another day
Drop your blade
Listen, to what I say

Who you trying to impress, you making a bid
To be a big shot brother, but you're just a small kid
Now your reputation got a minor stain
It'll be washed away by tomorrow's rain

Little brother I'm telling you now
Your pride can take a hit
Little brother take a deep breath
Cool off man, forget about it

Drop the weapon
Kick it away
Drop your gun
Look the other way
Drop the weapon
Live another day
Drop your blade
Listen, to what I say

No sound of silence
Just streets of violence
We're in overload
Wrong side of the road
Oh San Francisco
Where the hell did you go
We have enough of that
Peace and love

Drop the weapon
Kick it away
Drop your gun
Look the other way
Drop the weapon
Live another day
Drop your blade
Listen, to what I say

No sound of silence
Just streets of violence
We're in overload
Wrong side of the road
Oh San Francisco
Where the hell did you go
We have enough of that
Peace and love
Come and hold my hand
Then we can all stand
And say a prayer
To someone out there
Anyone out there
