lyrics

Stoneman Douglas and Sandy Hook.
All this suffering, it's hard to look,
and see that if we don't take steps to change,
what we'll get is just more of the same:
Say Their Name.

Close the loophole on background checks.
For our children, we must protect.
Too many lost needlessly.
Now I'm asking you to talk to me.
Let us activate democracy peacefully!

Measure 114, Yes on 114.
We are asking please,
Vote YES on 114!

Lift every voice and sing!
Vote YES on 114!
Limit capacity of magazines!
Make training requisite to receive your permit!
Fund personnel who will tell the truth!

"We have come over a way that with tears has been watered.
We have come treading our path through the blood of the slaughtered."
(These lyrics are taken from the original version of Lift Every Voice, by James W. Johnson, 1871-1938)

Measure 114, Yes on 114.
We are asking please,
Vote YES on 114.
