CROSSFIRE I [Verse 1] He'd trade his guns for love But he's caught in the crossfire And he keeps waking up But it's not to the sound of birds The tyranny, the violent streets Deprived of all that we're blessed with And we can't get enough, no [Chorus] Heaven, if you sent us down So we can build a playground For the sinners to play as saints You'd be so proud of what we've made I hope you got some beds around 'Cause you're the only refuge now For every mother, every child, every brother Who's caught in the crossfi-, who's caught in the crossfire [Verse 2] I'd trade my luck to know Why he's caught in the crossfire And I'm here waking up To the sun and the sound of birds Society's anxiety Deprived of all that we're blessed with We just can't get enough, no [Chorus] Heaven, if you sent us down So we can build a playground For the sinners to play as saints You'd be so proud of what we've made I hope you got some beds around 'Cause you're the only refuge now For every mother, every child, every brother Who's caught in the crossfire, who's caught in the crossfire [Bridge] Can I trust what I'm given? When faith still needs a gun Whose ammunition justifies the wrong? And I can't see from the backseat So I'm asking from above Can I trust what I'm given, even when it cuts? [Chorus] So heaven, if you sent us down So we can build a playground For the sinners to play as saints You'd be so proud of what we've made I hope you got some beds around 'Cause you're the only refuge now For every mother and every child, every brother Who's caught in the crossfire Who's caught in the crossfire Who's caught in the crossfire, baby, baby Who's caught on the cross CROSSFIRE II [Verse 1: Talib Kweli] Walk by her in the path of righteousness I walk higher, toss liars In the pit of hell, caught in the crossfire Caught fire, from the big guns, these is not revolvers Violence only creates confusion, it ain't a problem solver Let's go, my skin is my dress code Just know, I need a personal Jesus I'm in Depeche Mode My best show is when the bullets hit the flesh slow This ain't a movie, dog, you know it when your chest explodes [Chorus: Stephen] I'd trade my luck to know Why he's caught in the crossfire And I'm here waking up To the sun and the sound of birds Society's anxiety Deprived of all that we're blessed with We just can't get enough, no [Verse 2: Talib Kweli] 99 Problems, Sean Michael Carter Can find ayala trying to fix my life like Evelyn Lazana Night marauders, 12 hour cigars like godfathers Starving artist trying to get some cut like the hardest barbers Blunt culture, what I talk is dead coming from vultures I promise I didn't choose to be a martyr, my enemies' focus My heart seems to be the target if you ain't notice These guns are still our youth, it's stolen moments [Chorus: Stephen] I'd trade my luck to know Why he's caught in the crossfire And I'm here waking up To the sun and the sound of birds Society's anxiety Deprived of all that we're blessed with We just can't get enough, no CROSSFIRE III [Verse 1: Saba] Can you cross the street without crossfire Skidmarks under car tires All my neighbours they call prayers Other side of the barbed wire I'll watch from my porch 'Till it's dark out and the vampires Eating alive the damn sirens We watch the game like umpires Stray like a stray dog from what they are Fight in a park Left the battlefield without a scar Run from a cop when the vapor clears Work hard hoping that it pay off in the end But you ain't sure It's the crash course, but you ain't insured, 'cause you can't talk [Chorus: Stephen] Heaven if you sent us down So we can build a playground For the sinners to play as saints You'd be so proud of what we made I hope you got some beds around 'Cause you're the only refuge now For every mother and every child, every brother That's caught in the crossfire That's caught in the crossfire [Verse 2: Ravyn Lenae] Smile a little more when you're awake They won't see us shake Heaven waits on Earth when we obey Let us say our grace Baby boy and baby girl (girl) Take control, this is your world (world) Tiny hands, they move with love We are yet the best to come [Outro: Stephen] We are yet the best to come Through the worst, we rise above Pain is what we blossom from Show the man we're looking up, up Doesn't matter who you love Doesn't matter where you're from This is not a place for some We're the same, so it's all or none

0:00 - 4:16 Crossfire 4:18 - 7:22 Crossfire Part 2 7:22 - 10:32 Crossfire Part 3 even though it sounds better together like not as separate songs-- I'm still putting the timestamps in case anyone needs it {correct me if I'm wrong :-) }
