Goapele
Don’t shoot me down
[Verse 1: Ab-Liva]
I can’t sleep at night nah
The voices getting louder now she’s fleeing from the car
Words are like bullets when they heal they leave scars
If love is a battlefield then we are at war
I remember before we were happy we'd fall
In and out of love like tides on the seashore
Is it right to leave off what you need to breathe off
Or did you take the time that you need to grieve off
Most don’t stop, they following no recourse
The slippery slope that always ends in divorce
So I make tracks like the tears of a clown
As hard as is to fly, she still shoots me down
[Hook 1: Mateo]
Maybe in a minute, this could all be done and finished
But I promise that I’m with it if we just forgive forget it I'm wrong baby
We are the floss baby
Cause I be hours thinking and my positives are shrinking
And you look at me when speaking like what was I just thinkin
It’s past due, why am I with you
I’ve been thinking that it’s so real, what does it feel like
To give it your all and feel like you’re falling baby
I’ve been thinkin that it’s so cruel, to be confused
It’s like I'm caught in a maze, running away
[Hook: Goapele]
Please don’t shoot me down, (cause I’m flying) I’m flying, I’m flying
(I know that we argue) don't wanna be down
(Don’t shoot me down) please don’t shoot me down, no baby
Cause I’m flying, I’m flying don't wanna be down
[Hook 2: Goapele / Mateo]
Maybe we should just be silent nothing's supposed to be this violent
Everything is not one-sided can you just hear me out baby
There’s no need to shout baby
I know we go through life freestylin, but just keep on ride or dyin don’t give up just keep on flying
On and on baby, we just keep falling, no, no
I’ve been thinking that it’s so real, what does it feel like
To give it your all and know that you’re falling
I’ve been thinkin that it’s so cruel, to be confused
We're caught in a maze, we're running away
[Hook: Goapele / Mateo]
Please don’t shoot me down, don’t shoot me down
Cause I’m flying, I’m flying baby
I’m flying, so high baby, don’t wanna be down
Oh yeah, please don’t shoot me down, don’t shoot me down baby
I need you baby, I’m flying so high, so high
Damn, Damn, Damn...
