A cold night in December Waiting for the train The only thing I can remember I was shocked with so much pain Frozen in time Snow turned crimson red The rage inside grew higher than high Then I realized I was dead The man with pale blue eyes And a badge in his hand Well he didn't even stop to think twice If he should really kill that man "Well he was armed Looked ready to kill" He never had to right the wrongs For any blood that he had spilled It's not that I'm afraid to die or stand for what I know The bitter man he hears the cry, still does nothing at all If you're gonna say what you say and gonna do what you do Well, the bigotry's because of you Outrun the fire Outrun the fire It's not like I hate you But you shot him down I got a question "What did he do?" Guess it's cause his skin is brown Now he's left with nothing For everything you've done This here proves theres no such thing As a "good guy" with a gun It's not that I'm afraid to die or stand for what I know The bitter man he hears the cry, still does nothing at all If you're gonna say what you say and gonna do what you do Well, the bigotry's because of you Outrun the fire Outrun the fire What you've done isn't right It's a fucking lie Stop wasting our time With your supremacist crimes Why can't you see What you've done to me It won't set you free Won't set you free It's not that I'm afraid to die or stand for what I know The bitter man he hears the cry, still does nothing at all If you're gonna say what you say and gonna do what you do Well, the bigotry's because of you Outrun the fire It's not that I'm afraid to die or stand for what I know The bitter man he hears the cry, still does nothing at all If you're gonna say what you say and gonna do what you do Well, the bigotry's because of you Outrun the fire Outrun the fire Outrun the fire Outrun the fire
