The Lyrics
Can't say this was one of my better works, but I don't think I need to pad out a long song to cover the Kyle Rittenhouse song. I was not going to use Madness's song "Our House", for pacing reasons.
(Chorus)
If that’s what it was
In the pitch dark with a gun, son, I will flee from fear
If that’s what it was
If you gotta fight my right to carry a rifle
If that’s what it was
In the pitch dark with a gun, son, got it from black friend+
If that’s what it was, if that’s what it was, if that’s what it was
(Verse 1)
Now I ran around Kenosha streets
With my fam in town and I can give receipts
Yeah, yeah, when it’s not FPS*
Joe and Anthony’s death causing stress (Yuh)
Now we see Binger make these mistakes
He, points a loaded gun in court mistakes
Yeah, yeah but Richards has my back
I really wish I wasn’t here
Be clear
(Chorus)
If that’s what it was
In the pitch dark with a gun, son, I will flee from fear
If that’s what it was
If you gotta fight my right to carry a rifle
If that’s what it was
In the pitch dark with a gun, son, got it from black friend
If that’s what it was, if that’s what it was, if that’s what it was
(Verse 2)
Look, from my ordeal there is just means to grow
With the press always calling me a foe (Yuh)
If they keep this line of talk, lies with money they will owe
Where do they get this hate like Nick Sandman he is my bro (Ayy)
Now we hear from the survivor Gaige
Mistrial of prejudice the judge might engage
Yeah, yeah, fail to put me in cage
From outside we see protest rage
Turn page
(Chorus)
If that’s what it was
In the pitch dark with a gun, son, I will flee from fear
If that’s what it was
If you gotta fight my right to carry a rifle
If that’s what it was
In the pitch dark with a gun, son, got it from black friend+
If that’s what it was, if that’s what it was, if that’s what it was
If that’s what it was
In the pitch dark with a gun, son, I will flee from fear
If that’s what it was
If you gotta fight my right to carry a rifle
If that’s what it was
In the pitch dark with a gun, son, got it from black friend+
If that’s what it was, if that’s what it was, if that’s what it was
(Verse 1)
Now I ran around Kenosha streets
With my fam in town and I can give receipts
Yeah, yeah, when it’s not FPS*

If that’s what it was
If you gotta fight my right to carry a rifle
If that’s what it was

If that’s what it was, if that’s what it was, if that’s what it was

If that’s what it was, if that’s what it was, if that’s what it was
* = First Person Shooter. + = Dominic Black that is. Hey is that the racist angle that the press is trying to convey? That Kyle got his gun from a black guy? I think my back broke from those mental gymnastics.
