Following the June 12 Orlando shooting George Watsky released this track through his YouTube.
Watsky raps from three different perspectives throughout the song and provides insight on the the media’s, as well as the politicians' hypocrisy.
The Orlando massacre is not explicitly referred to and the...
[Verse 1: Watsky]
I’ll be gone when you read this so I just wanted to say
I’m sorry to the couple decent people who got in the way
And maybe there was a point at which this all could have been different
But this is the position we’re in and it’s pointless to wish that it isn’t
They'll all be gawking when I walk in the door
Cocking my shotgun hammer and they drop to the floor
The clocks shatter I scatter the jock horde and splatter the chalkboard
It matters a lot more, than half of you thought
When you were knocking me like I’m a laughingstock
And a weakling a freak and creep, I was mocked and ignored
You’re sorry now but talk is cheap-- shoulda thought it before
You’re the sorry flock of sheep who made me rot to the core
And of course you’ll make a break to escape through the corridor
Don’t be late— I’ll set you up on a date with the coroner
And our fate’s are sealed, all of you fakes
Don't worry, this will all be over soon
[Chorus: Watsky + Julia Nunes]
You got your finger on the trigger, kid
You got your finger on the trigger, kid
Line it up, line it up, line it up
And hit me with the truth
You got your finger on the trigger, kid
You got your finger on the trigger, kid
Line it up, line it up, line it up
And hit me with the truth
[Verse 2: Watsky]
Thanks for tuning into the top-rated crew in the news
Feels great to us that we’re the one that viewers would choose
I’m hearing through my producer
We’ve got the scoop on the name and the favorite food of the shooter
Plus an interview with a student
Who’s been fed through a tube— she was shot in the head
We’re gonna bring you a segment live from her hospital bed
We’ll try to bring you the spin through your preexisting opinions
But if we miss it switch it to our sister network instead
Of course we know this situation is tragic
But take a minute to appreciate our fabulous graphics
And we’ll be back in action with up to the second reports
After a couple of words from all our loyal sponsors of course
So like us, vine us, and tweet to connect
24/7 we’re giving ya what you’re craving
We live to deliver live the kinda coverage that you’ve come to expect
We’re always here for you
[Chorus: Watsky + Julia Nunes]
You got your finger on the trigger, kid
You got your finger on the trigger, kid
Line it up, line it up, line it up
And hit me with the truth
You got your finger on the trigger, kid
You got your finger on the trigger, kid
Line it up, line it up, line it up
And hit me with the truth
[Bridge: Julia Nunes]
Stick to your guns
Stick to your guns
Stick to your guns
Stick to your guns
[Verse 3: Watsky]
We come together in this hour of need
To honor the innocent victims of this cowardly deed
Of course I share your sentiment as your voice in the Senate
But let’s accept nothing ever could have been done to prevent it
It’s just the strange inner visions of a deranged individual
Full of rage, full of hate, full of vitriol
I gotta mention that it’s sick and insane
My opponent’s twisting your pain for political gain
That’s lame
And I think it’s a damn shame
It doesn’t give anyone power to cast blame
Because the past is the past, and it’s best that we keep things the same
So my Chads and my Staceys, go back to the mall
Fill your bags out at Macy’s and chat in the hall
And I hope I’m that vote that you cast in the fall
'Cause I care for you, it’s true
[Bridge: Julia Nunes]
Stick to your guns
Stick to your guns
Stick to your guns
Stick to your guns
[Outro: Watsky]
You got your finger on the trigger, kid
You got your finger on the trigger, kid
