Hey Papa Lyrics

Kids and guns starting out so young
We normalize and empathize and hold our hands over our eyes
The breaking news, we're not waking to
Turn it on, turn it off, pray to God one day it stops

What are we supposed to do?
When everyone's afraid of changing?
How much do we have to lose?
Isn't all that we are worth saving?

So raise your hands and raise them high, oh, yeah, yeah
Hold them up and hold your fire, oh, yeah

Hey Papa, what's the news?
Doesn't anybody wanna hear the truth?
Hey Papa, it's not fair
Seems like people going down everywhere
Hey Papa, oh, hey

And we try to survive, and we'll live or we'll die
And we wanna be free, but we wanna be right
When I don't understand, I get angry sometimes
And we all want a piece of American Dream
Red, white, and blue, freedom and peace
I don't know what it means 'cause it's far from our reach

If not for you, then all for love, oh, yeah, yeah
For everyone, forever love, oh, yeah

Hey Papa, I give up
I don't know if I'm strong enough
Hey Papa, are you still there?
I guess I'm getting just a little scared
Hey Papa, hey, hey Papa, oh yeah
Hey Papa, hey, hey Papa

Oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh
Mamas mourn the loss in this world
And children pay the cost to live in this world, oh

Hey Papa, what's the news?
Doesn't anybody wanna hear the truth?
Hey Papa, it's not fair
It seems like people going down everywhere
Hey Papa, I give up
I don't know if I'm strong enough, oh
Hey Papa, are you still there? (Whoa)
Guess I'm getting just a little scared (oh)
Hey Papa, hey, hey Papa, oh yeah
Hey Papa, hey, hey Papa

Oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh
