Overture - Painted

Oh It's all in vain, Oh it's all lost in vain
A little boy cries comes in the night
Ends from the sound, of a stray bullet which carelessly flies
Taking the young boys life
Another mother's cries lost in vain, reflections in her eyes drives her insane
What have they done, to her only son, I know
Inner city violence
Paints the world obscured from light
Who's to say that one life
Couldn't have brought the world back in the light
What could have been a leader, now another assassin statistic
Visions dwindle, now tear drops fall, from hopeless eyes
Not seeing their own demise
Inner city violence
Paints the world obscured from light
Who's to say that one life
Couldn't have brought the world back in the light
Oh it's all in vain, Oh its all, all lost in vain
Why must, must a young boy pay with his life, answer that
Inner city violence
Paints the world obscured from light
Who's to say that one life
Couldn't have brought the world back in the light
Who's to say that one life
Couldn't have brought the world back in the light
Who's to say, that one life, into the world
