[00:00:00] The Ballad Of Ronald Timbers - The 241ers

[00:00:00] He wish one more dead on a long long

[00:00:03] List of names

[00:00:07] Fifteen year old ronald timbers was buried under dirt and blame

[00:00:14] A mother needing help instead a trigger happy system took aim

[00:00:21] To the life of her child and no answers

[00:00:24] To the questions of force used with lethal intention

[00:00:27] Could their cruel intervention

[00:00:29] Be justified to the family or the further community

[00:00:38] In philadelphia there's a mural of a fallen cop

[00:00:45] It's making the news some local youth got their hands

[00:00:48] On some cans

[00:00:49] Let loose with the spray paint now they got to

[00:00:52] Be stopped

[00:00:53] It's true the violent loss of a life my be

[00:00:56] Such tragedy

[00:01:00] But the city don't honor those that it's killing

[00:01:03] So forgive our frustrations at these gross violations

[00:01:06] Their rationalization of killing doesn't wash with me it's true

[00:01:12] We bury our dead now

[00:01:13] At the funerals the heads bow

[00:01:15] Across the land a war ensues

[00:01:17] It's on the streets

[00:01:18] No justice or peace

[00:01:20] We die on our knees

[00:01:22] It's a critical need we have for restraint

[00:01:25] And those guns aren't their right so take away their weapons

[00:01:46] He wish one more dead on a long long

[00:01:49] List of names
