44 Minutes lyrics

It was a cool winter's morning

Somewhere shortly past 9:00 AM

The armored car they wanted to heist wasn't coming

So instead they went for the bank

The fateful duo that sat in the get-away car

Heavily sedated with thousands of round

Armor piercing, fully automatic weapons

The bowls of wrath poured out on the ground

[Chorus]

Baptized in a firefight

Hot blood running cold as ice

Forty four minutes of target practice

All hell's breaking loose

Outgunned, watching "The Force" come to a firefight with a pocketknife

Getting schooled until they shot Achilles' heel

And brought down the beast!!!

This was an accident waiting to happen

It wasn't if it would happen, it was when

The city's people sabotaged themselves

Calling their firepower an unneeded expense

The two most violent men it seemed couldn't be stopped

Standard police issue guns were just not enough

But SWAT arrived to settled the fight

Between AK-47 and AR-15

[Chorus: x2]
