44 Minutes

(73-43 requesting assistance, we have 2-11 in progress at the Bank of America) (We have shots fired) (One or two officers need help, B of A) (Suspects are leaving the bank, do not approach the bank!) (Shots are being fired from AK-47, there is an officer down!) (We are all pinned down by automatic gunfire!) It was a cool winter's morning Somewhere shortly past 9 am The only car they wanted to the heist wasn't coming So instead they went for the bank The fateful duo that sat in the getaway car The police sedated with thousands of miles Armor piercing for the automatic weapons The police arrived torn out on the ground Baptized in a firefight Hot blood running cold as ice 44 minutes of target practice All hell is breaking loose Outgunned, watching the porch Drawn to a firefight with a pocketknife They stood until they saw an Achilles Heel And it brought down the beast This was an accident waiting to happen It wasn't if it was happening, it was when The city's people sabotaged themselves Caught in the firepower and the expense The two most violent men it seemed couldn't be stopped The standard police issued guns were just not enough But SWAT arrived to settle the fight Between AK-47 and AR-15 Baptized in a firefight Hot blood running cold as ice 44 minutes of target practice All hell is breaking loose Outgunned, watching the porch Drawn to a firefight with a pocketknife They stood until they saw an Achilles Heel And it brought down the beast Baptized in a firefight Hot blood running cold as ice 44 minutes of target practice All hell is breaking loose Outgunned, watching the porch Drawn to a firefight with a pocketknife They stood until they saw an Achilles Heel And it brought down the beast
