Times of violence Times of decay Armed assault A spreading desease Brother against brother Blood against blood Don't look any further Fear reigns the neighbourhood Don't you start talking Nothing here to say Better hide your face When your life gets blown away [Bridge] Spiral of violence is rising high One step too far and thou shalt die [Chorus] Under the gun - Under the gun Ignored the warning signs Under the gun - Under the gun Staking out the claims In the market place Never ending struggle Caught in a rat race The price of life is cheap See it going down Competition is on See it day by day Fortified territories Armed to the teeth The law of the gun Is the only belief [Bridge] [Chorus]
