It was just a normal day

It was just a normal day

Everyone was almost done

Everyone was ready for the summer fun

Until one normal afternoon

It went dark

Kids were scared

And hoped things would not get any worse

They heard something like firecrackers 

Then they heard a scream of someone like a teacher

A teacher went to look and saw the worst thing 

A kid with a gun

Everyone stay calm and don't run

A girl ran and started to scream

Someone grab him he's reloading

Some people who were his bullies asked him why

He just looked at them with a fire inside

They grabbed him and threw him

As he dropped the gun they started laughing at that too

He reached under his belt and there it was another gun for his fun,

He walked up stairs and shoots a door 

He gets hit in the face and falls to the floor 

He gets back up and meets a man who says why Martin why...

He tries to shoot but he cannot he drops the gun and walks away

He walks up to his teacher and gives him a hug

Don't let them touch me or it will be worse

The teacher asked who but he would not say

He just sits down and starts to cry

The police come in and they ask him why

He responds with just one guy
