An insult can go a long way
Especially if it rubs the wrong way
Or even if it happens in the wrong place. At the wrong time. On the
wrong day
Your anger came out along with your weapon
He better hope your hearts a strong weapon
He talked about your mom that's not accepted in the hood
Plus with all your friends around accepting that ain't good
So now you got that pistol
Because a day like this is why you got that pistol
But the same day you got that pistol
A day like this is why you knew you shouldn't have got that pistol
Now the pistol is pointed to his head
What if that same pistol was pointed at your head
Your friends telling you to put a hole in his head
While your heart gotta different pistol pointed at your head
So now to whom will you listen
If you do it then you will be doomed as a Christian
But if you do then you will be doomed as *****
You just tryna get to heaven can't have another ***** dooming your
mission
But you don't got the time nor the place to fail
With a fail you might get placed in jail
Besides jail it gets a litter deeper cuz you tryna get a bite of
heaven you don't want a taste of hell
All these rules and lessons
Plus all these thoughts elapsed in 10 seconds
You can either blast him in seconds or fall back and quit grasping
your weapon.
In been less than two seconds and your decision was made
You gon be thinking bout making that decision for days
And your friends gon talk about that decision
Now as your living your days
You wonder sometimes is that dude still living his days
What you wonder the most that is after you stop living your days how
will you be living your days
