EVAN - Targets

Terrorists be detonate. I found out when I was 8
Was it Al Qeada, or was it The Islamic State
Happened when I was 3. How would it affect me
My nation, upped the (anti) on discrimination

Targets, targets, Why you hate Target(s)
Cutting off the heads of American sergeants
If you disagree, there's no reason to be harming
Diplomatic ways, to convey, and it's harmless
Margins, margins, man, that's just heartless
Just because it's true, doesn't make it not artless
Find a common ground, put good use to your smartness
Coming from the E.T.A, Evan The Artist

So your religion says if you be sky-walking
You gon' have a lot of fun, TempurPedic-hopping
To you, the US is a dead man walking
And I know that's just the radicals talking
It's unfair to think all Muslims are alike
Like they all just want your head up on a pike (Eww, gross!)
When there's a million for this country, they would die
And a thousand more who already gave their lives
Dying for what you believe in; that's faith
Do it for love, the last thing you're looking for is fame
Kim Jong Un and Adolf played that game
Osama too, only problem is discriminate
Need to tune the world out. Need me? Send a dove
When a message come, I'll open it without a glove
Oh look, he's in the "Love Your Neighbor As Yourself" club
Yes I am a Christian, and that means that I was taught to love
So I'm incapable of hating you
Killing you within my heart is not debatable
I was raised to see the best in people
Whether or not they meet me down at the steeple
Y'all oughta know I hablo a little Spanglish
In response to all of the hate I'm tryna vanquish (Dragon)
I know music is a universal language
It may be my only shot to cut through all this anguish

Targets, targets, Why you hate Target(s)
Cutting off the heads of American sergeants
If you disagree, there's no reason to be harming
Diplomatic ways, to convey, and it's harmless
Margins, margins, man, that's just heartless
Just because it's true, doesn't make it not artless
Find a common ground, put good use to your smartness
Coming from the E.T.A, Evan The Artist

Shooting up in France, on my 18th birthday
Asking myself, "What kinda game is they tryna play?"
I know that they're allies, like Great Britain
But honestly, it should be us you should be hitting
In the wake of Brexit and Istanbul
What I will soon disclose is incredible

They choosing to hit Europe, they don't hit home
What's next? They mess around with history and hit Rome
You heard about them Libyan attacks they did, bro
Then attack they "so-called" self. "It's just The West, though... right
The enemy is the rest of humanity
Differences in our cultures give them insanity
Okay kid, what you mean to tell me
Is that the terrorists don't care about my spending
Believe me when I say your focus is a bit off, bro
Please point your lens at your mind and not Fam. Co
They don't give a care about our national debt, though
And don't even get me started on Aleppo

Oh, you dun done it now

Syrian Civil War -- not the only ones
Rebels make their point with gore. 'Cause they own the funds
Blowing up people poor, missles more than guns
Kids are not deserving nor, are they prepeared for
What's outside apartment doors? Need a miracle
Bloody faces galore. The resistance corp
And just days after they soar, This isn't minimal
Missle jets back for more. This is criminal

I remember centuries ago, y'all was balling
You got guns and now look, Aleppo's falling
Man, why you gotta be like that
We're all human regardless of what kinda hats we wear
Please don't let the differences impair
Just try to find a common ground -- I know it's there
Just try to find a common ground -- I know it's there
Just try to find a common ground -- I know it's there
Just try to find a common ground -- I know it's there
Just try to find a common ground -- I know it's there
The killing must stop
