41 shots 
41 shots 
41 shots 
41 shots 
41 shots and we'll take that ride 
41 shots 
41 shots 
41 shots 

Lena gets her son ready for school 
She says now on these streets Charles 
You got to understand the rules 
Promise me if an officer stops you'll allways be polite 
Never ever run away and promise momma you'll keep your hands in sight 

Cause is it a gun? 
Is it a knife? 
Is it a wallet? 
This is your life 
It ain't no secret 
It ain't no secret 
The secret my friend 
You can get killed just for living in your American skin 

41 shots 
41 shots 
41 shots 
Across this bloody river to the other side 
41 shots they cut through the night 
You're kneeling over his body in the vestibule 
Praying for his life 

Is it a gun? 
Is it a knife? 
Is it a wallet? 
This is your life 
It ain't no secret 
It ain't no secret 
Ain't no secret my friend 
You can get killed just for living in your American skin 

41 shots 
41 shots 
41 shots 

Lena gets her son ready for school 
She says now on these streets Charles 
You got to understand the rules 
Promise me if an officer stops you'll always be polite 
Never ever run away and promise momma you'll keep your hands in sight 

Cause is it a gun? 
Is it a knife? 
Is it a wallet? 
This is your life 
It ain't no secretn get killed just for living in your American skin 

41 shots 
41 shots 
41 shots 

Is it a gun? 
Is it a knife? 
Is it a wallet? 
This is your life 
It ain't no secret 
It ain't no secret 
It ain't no secret 

41 shots and we'll take that ride 
Across this bloody river to the other side 
41 shots my boots caked in mud 
We're baptized in these waters and in each other's blood 

It ain't no secretIs it a knife? 
Is it a wallet? 
This is your life 
It ain't no secret 
It ain't no secret 
The secret my friend 
You can get killed just for living in 
You can get killed just for living in 
You can get killed just for living in your American skin
