Emergency, the whole place shot up
Move or you sure pick it up
Emergency, the whole place red
Jump high, jump low, somebody dead
See some of us who see really and truly blind
And some of us who hear still deaf to the sound
I have a permanent tape stain down my mind
The knowledge of right and the profits of crime
With pressures of bling bearing down on me
I end up falling prey to my own vanity
My own vanity, now what do I see
Emergency, the whole place shot up
Move or you sure pick it up
Emergency, the whole place red
Jump high, jump low, somebody dead
I cry everyday for the gift of clear vision
With a tear in my eye I persist on my mission
Got to watch every night for the red highlight
Flowing out, flashing out of my head tonight
Got to put up a fight with all of my might
One day I pray we'll see the light
Emergency, the whole place shot up
Move or you sure pick it up
Emergency, the whole place red
Jump high, jump low, somebody dead
Somebody dead (somebody dead)
Somebody dead (somebody dead)
Somebody dead (somebody dead)
Somebody dead (somebody dead)
Death and destruction is all part of life
As the weak and the strong struggle to survive
Now I know that we cannot live life without pain
But why kill another for material gain
Are we doomed to repeat the mistakes of the past
How much can we take, how long will it last
Now it seems that intelligence is wasted on man
For all I can see is destruction at hand
Emergency, the whole place shot up
Move or you sure pick it up
Emergency, the whole place red
Jump high, jump low, somebody dead
Emergency, the whole place shot up
Move or you sure pick it up
Emergency, the whole place red
Jump high, jump low, somebody dead
