SHOOTER

By Lamar Jorden

2:56 PM

Bullets bask in barrel before booming

Students zooming towards exit run rampant like thoughts in my head

Any student not thought to be dead

Gets shot again

Students think "not again" as my tech shoots shades of Virginia

Within the mutual minds behind mines Blacksburg turns into DeKalb

Students scream aloud as rounds rip through the crowd

The scene is wild

But for once

I get to be center stage

Behind my blank look I'm in a rage

A renegade

Tamed but in a cage I stand

Stance stiff as a statue starin' at chu

Shots and shotgun shells fly like pterodactyls

The scene is so thick

Which fits cuz I'm an outcast

But this is no "Player's Ball"

This is a scene of prayers, calls and screams

Anybody from teens to professors to football players crawl and I spray em all

Lay em all down in a timely fashion

As they're dashin' to safety I'm safely solid as a mannequin

Brandishin' 3 handguns and a shotgun

The world is goin’ crazy

The world is goin’ crazy I'm just a daily reminder

Scrutinize my autopsy you still won't find a spine to justify my acts

You run from my bullets but can't escape the fact that this goes back

This goes back to the 19th century in elementaries around the globe

1891

St. Mary's Parochial School

Fools before me used shotguns to empty a class

Fast forward 36 years 1927

2nd to 6th graders were the targets

45 were martyred

58 more wounded at the hands of school board member Andrew Kehoe

Y'all upset at me though

This coward killed kids because his farm was being foreclosed

These were the same people chose to own slaves at the time

We’re all slaves in the mind

I swear the world is goin' crazy

The world is insane

School shootings are more overrated than Lil' Wayne

So tell his fans at Northern Illinois that I'm the shooter

Skin Thicke like Robin and matches in pigmentation

Tell his fans at Northern Illinois that I'm the shooter

Gunsmoke and sudden death make the atmosphere putrid

Today's Valentine's Day homie I wanna be Cupid

Slugs replace arrows

Icebox replaces heart that I can't seem to find

No one seems to mind that students show more school spirit when someone is dead

Who was Dan Parmenter before he bled Husky Red?

Shots to the head seemingly make you more popular

That has to be why most the shooters kill themselves

Resembling suicide bombers from countries we are brainwashed to think is a threat

We are fighting over oil

My blood boils at the realization that you can get killed for nothin’ in college

Just as easily as you can in a war or in jail

But we're still more concerned with weed sales and pushin' the whip

I guess this is what happens when a country is run by a Bush and a Dick

 

 

The world is beyond crazy

Why are we overseas when the real war is in front of us?

The real war is in the institutions that are supposed to build a better tomorrow

The sorrow is in the hearts of those who fall victim to those dimming bright futures

We fight foreigners when we are the ones who will shoot cha

I'm sorry

This is a life in the day of a resentful shooter

This goes out to the victims at Northern Illinois

Virginia Tech

Columbine High School

University of Texas

Bath School

Poe Elementary

Cologne

The list goes on

I'm sorry

Because guns don't kill people

We kill ourselves but 

the world is going crazy

Crazy like myself

Crazy like the fact that if Bush cared for my mental health

Five innocent lives

Woulda been spared.

I'm sorry....

I’m sorry...
