Don’t Shoot Me Down

[Intro]
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa
Whoa
Whoa

[Chorus]
Years feeling like days, gone in the blink of an eye
Rhythm switch up with the seasons, I'm just tryna keep time
Is it method to the madness, am I losing my mind?
Too many selves to count, I don't want them to hide
Don’t shoot me down (don’t shoot me down)
Don’t shoot me down (don’t shoot me down)
Don’t shoot me down (don’t shoot me down)
Don’t shoot me down (don’t shoot me do-o-ooown)

[Verse]
And they might say
That it ain’t as good as the first time like Sade
Made a promise since my first rhyme I'd do it my way
I'm a little fish in a bigger pond, in a shark tank
Take a dive in, mm
I was in my head so much, I was losing sleep
Solipsistic, is my mind that deep?
Burning at both ends, I can barely stand the heat
Buried emotions, what would you think of me?
Your demeanor like a boulder
The image I had of you, it’s eroded
I can’t be fighting all the time, I’m putting walls up
Somewhere I gotta draw a line, set a border
Apology, apology, but the pain persists
Swiss army knife how you change again
Will you aid or injure me? Can I make some sense of it?
Try and make amends, we play pretend, a makeshift way to live

[Chorus]
Years feeling like days, gone in the blink of an eye
Rhythm switch up with the seasons, I'm just tryna keep time
Is it method to the madness, am I losing my mind?
Too many selves to count, I don't want them to hide
Don’t shoot me down (don’t shoot me down)
Don’t shoot me down (don’t shoot me down)
Don’t shoot me down (don’t shoot me down)
Don’t shoot me down (don’t shoot me do-o-ooown)

[Outro]
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa
Whoa
Whoa
