Stand Your Ground

All alone with their two kids at home
When she saw him outside their place.
With the breaking glass she moved real fast
They made it up to the attic in case
She brought her phone and her .38 and tried to dial up 911
Then she called their Dad. Man he was mad, he said,
“Darling, just aim that gun…and

Stand Your Ground. Don’t let him take your life away
Stand Your Ground. Don’t let him take our kids today.
It’s the essence of our liberty and defense against all tyranny
So fire away and Stand Your Ground

His jewelry store up on the boulevard was the target of a gang
Twice he’s robbed -he finally made the choice to never be the victim again
So when they burst on in and aimed at him,
He answered with his own
When the fusillade was over, two more bangers were dead and gone

Stand Your Ground. Don’t let them take your guns away.
Stand Your Ground. So you can live to another day.
The police will even tell you that they can’t be all around
So lock and load and Stand Your Ground

Captain Parker’s on the Lexington Green. It was 1775.
Those Redcoats they were moving on in, taking guns and taking lives

If it’s a fight they want, we’ll give them one
We’ve got nothing to fear
In a minute, men,
If they want their war, let it start right here

Stand your ground. And make every shot ring true
Stand your ground. Who will do it if not you?
It’s the essence of our liberty and defense against all tyranny
So fire away and Stand Your Ground

BREAKDOWN Stand Your Ground 4x

They dare to force these laws on us never sharing our beliefs
Surrounded by their bodyguards all armed right to the teeth
If history’s any lesson, they’ll take more freedoms one by one
You don’t know who you’re messin’ with
And ……you’ll never ever - take – my – gun!

Stand Your Ground. Don’t let them take your guns away.
Stand Your Ground. So you can live to another day.
