1 In the midnight hours do you hears guns shooting when you should be enjoying silence? What's going on today? Us kids can't play in the neighborhood without running for cover cause somebody's up to no good. Some moms are saying they're scared to let their kids play outside Cause Shakira was out jumping rope but got shot and died. That's sad...Don't people want us to have good times to remember? The newsman said...murder's been up since last December. Man...people gotta chill! This pain we feel is real. Come on! Stop the attacks and bring back... Bring back the laughter...Where's the laughter?
Chorus We need to hear laughter. Instead of shedding tears. We need to hear laughter...laughter in our ears. We need to hear laughter. Instead we're facing fears.
One child shoots a gun and then another child dies. Oh Lord! We can't stand to hear that momma cry Too soon in life to tell her child forever, "Good bye!"

It's so dangerous...some too scared to be on the playground. Everybody's wants to be a gangster with a big house...talkin' trash; But can't spell their name and will kill you over a little bit of cash! So many neighborhoods you can't even go in...folks just ain't pleasant Beat'in up and robbing the seniors...just so irreverent. Democrats and Republicans making promises unfulfilled... They ain't worried about the babies gettin' killed! Y'all forgettin' about the kids! Where's the laughter?
Verse
2 We don't remember but when did all this hatred begin? Oh Lord! There's so many trying to pretend... That someone is his enemy and just yesterday that was his friend! Spoken
