Music Video: "Shoot You Down" by the Revivalists

HERE is a link to the video, also posted below.

In a Huffington Post article, two of the Revivalists band members discuss the song and how shootings like the ones at Sandy Hook and Parkland inspired them to try to share this beautiful message.





Lyrics:

I’ll always be the stone, not the one who throws it
I’ll always be the road, that’s the path I’ve chosen
Know you’re not alone when your heart is broken
Say, I just wanna know
Yeah, I just wanna know

Can we for once just live with no guns?
And I tell, tell no lies
We’re not born to just die

People say, people say, what goes around comes around
But I won’t, no, I won’t shoot you down

I’ll always be the bridge, not the one who burns it
I’ll always be the kid with open arms deserving
Of all the love you give in a world that’s hurting
Say, we just want to live
Yeah, we just want to live

So can we for once just live with no guns?
And I tell, tell no lie
We’re not born to just die

People say, people say what goes around comes around
But I won’t, no, I won’t shoot you down
Said I won’t, no, I won’t shoot you down

I won’t shoot you down
I won’t shoot you down
So can we for once just live with no guns?

People say, people say what goes around comes around
But I won’t, no I won’t shoot you down
People say, people say what goes around comes around
But I won’t, no I won’t shoot you down

I won’t shoot you down
I won’t shoot you down
I won’t shoot you down
No I won’t
No I won’t
Shoot you down
