[Intro]
People dying for no reason at all
Age is no difference or if you're large or small
[Verse 1]
Families being torn apart
Doesn't have to be this way
Some people, just have no heart
It's happening every day
[Chorus]
Pure massacre
Pure massacre...
Pure massacre
Pure massacre...
[Verse 2]
Machine guns pumping, hearts thumping
Death is all around
People crying for freedom
No one hears the sound
[Chorus]
Pure massacre
Pure massacre...
Pure massacre
Pure massacre...
[Bridge]
There's people crying
There's people dying
But someone's taken it all, yeah
[Verse 2]
Machine guns pumping, hearts thumping
Death is all around
People crying for freedom
No one hears the sound
[Chorus]
Pure massacre
Pure massacre...
Pure massacre
Pure massacre...
Pure massacre
Pure massacre...
Pure massacre
Pure massacre...
[Outro]
It's gonna be a pure massacre
Yeah!
