A Bullet Waits For No One

A bullet waits for no one,
Regardless of your color, race or name,
It has but one purpose,
Regardless of its origin or its aim.
 
A bullet doesn’t care if you’re rich or poor,
It has no logic or emotion or stand,
Because whether it’s in war or peace time,
A bullet doesn’t care where it lands.
 
No matter how you put it into perspective,
A bullet has no conscience or any patience,
It can save a life by taking another one away,
Or it can take multiple ones without any sense.
 
Border patrol: Sir, you have to wait until your visa clears so you can enter legally…
Man: But they’re shooting at us over here, they’re killing…
Border Patrol: Sir, you have to follow the right steps…
Man: I don’t care, I’m trying to save…
Border patrol: Sir, you have to understand…
Man: They’ve killed my family and my brothers…
Border Patrol: Sir, if you…
 
A bullet is universal, it’s multi-cultural,
It speaks a universal language without breath,
Because those who cross borders desperately,
Are trying to get away from certain death.
 
It doesn’t matter if you’re a cop, a thief, a priest,
A man, a woman, an object or a beast,
A bullet doesn’t have any luck  
When the gun fire unleashes hell,
And a school child is caught in the hail,
A bullet never gives a fuck.
