Somebody's country, somebody's war Nobody knows just what they're fighting for Somebody's baby dressed in black There's a war at home But he ain't never coming back Hey, I want justice You know my baby can't walk the streets at night Can't get no protection, you know that ain't right I'm getting tired of paying for shit I never get Somebody promised justice But he ain't delivered yet I've been patient, I've been trying Can't watch my brothers and my sisters dying Don't read the papers, don't watch the news Don't want the government point of view This is my country, this is my war This time I know just what I'm fighting for Until we get the streets back We're prisoners you and I I'll be here fighting 'till the day I die
