The NRA, a Russian beast,
Spews terror, spreading fear, at least
While GOP's sold to greedy guns,
And MAGA cultists clasp their sons
And daughters, all armed to the teeth,
As if their self-worth's in belief
Of weapons for protection's sake,
But who's left living in their wake?
The Supreme Court, with blindfold off,
Is complicit in the slaughter's scoff.
Any questions? We must demand
Reform, for life, for peace, for stand.

Their thoughts and prayers, oh so cheap,
We're sick of hearing them speak,
For when we're struck with tragedy,
Their hollow words bring no remedy.
Like a pile of feces, they hold no worth,
In fact, it's worse, they add to the dearth,
Of solutions to the problems we face,
Their inaction a disgrace.
We need action, not just words,
To solve the issues that we've incurred,
No more empty promises or pleas,
It's time for real change, let's seize.

Texas, the ground zero of strife and pain,
Where guns claim victims again and again,
Where kids are slain and terror reigns,
A tragedy that no one can feign.
Texas, the ground zero of women's fight,
Where abortion bans and bounties ignite,
A war on their bodies, a crushing plight,
A fight for their freedom with all their might.
Texas, the ground zero of religious war,
Where the GOP's agenda is ajar,
Their vision of freedom has gone too far,
Oppressing those who don't believe like they are.
Texas, the ground zero of education,
Where religion in schools is a daily invocation,
A violation of the law and constitution,
A disregard for the value of separation.
Texas, a land of beauty and strife,
Where the GOP policies are rife,
A place where people deserve a better life,
A place where freedom shouldn't be a knife.

In the land of the free, they say,
Where rights are cherished every day,
But in America, a dark dismay,
As guns are granted more say.
Women's rights are put on hold,
While guns are bought and sold,
Books banned, and knowledge controlled,
As guns reign supreme, bold and cold.
Cars are checked and regulated,
While guns are free to be traded,
Drag shows scrutinized and rated,
Guns remain, laws outdated.
Abortion pills are hard to obtain,
While guns are easy to sustain,
America's killing fields, a stain,
The GOP's greed, a bloodstained bane.

Amidst the chaos, the heartbreak, and tears,
Texas again falls victim to gun-related fears.
Eight innocent souls lost, seven more fighting for life,
A tragedy that cuts deep like a sharpened knife.
The Lone Star State, with gun laws so loose,
Lives lost every day, with no end to the abuse.
We cry out for change, for measures to be taken,
But instead, leaders choose to leave us all forsaken.
With school shootings, family massacres, and now this,
The toll of gun violence, we cannot dismiss.
Thoughts and prayers are not enough, it's time for action,
But Republicans ignore the call, like they have no compassion.
In the Allen Premium Outlets, young lives were taken,
And we can't afford to let their memory be forsaken.
We need to say enough is enough, to demand change,
And to the GOP's false promises, it's time to estrange.
We need fewer guns, more safety measures in place,
For the sake of humanity, let's erase this disgrace.
No more lives lost, no more tears to be shed,
It's time to take a stand, for the living and the dead.
