Under the Gun is about the atrocities in Africa. Africa is in desperate need of help and if we can spread this message perhaps change may come sooner than later.
I was thinking about what it would be like to come home to find my whole family killed by some militant, corrupt, government group and being forced to run for my own life. These things happen in places like Sierra Leone, Darfur, and many other places in Africa. Research these places and make yourself aware of the problems other human beings are facing even right at this present moment.
My father is dead
Where will we go?
We've got to run fast
From Sierra Leone...
They kicked down the door
They come in our homes
They've beaten us down
Cracked our heads with the stone.

My mother is dead
Change must come soon
We've got to rise up
Put an end to the doom...
We'll muster the strength
Endure all the crime
They can burn down our homes
But they can't take our minds.

My brother is dead
Where will we sleep?
We can't stop for long
Or our lives they will reap..
A woman is crying
Her hands on her head
On the side of the road
Her baby lay dead.

My sister is dead
I stay on the run
Bullets fly past me now
As I'm under the gun..
Must make my way south
Must stick to the coast
I can't let them catch me now
They can't catch a ghost.
