Don’t Shoot Me Lyrics by Saint (MT)

#SaintSundays

2016

[Intro: Saint]
You ever feel like, people don't get what you're trynna do... but they still shoot you down anyway?
[Verse: Saint]
But I guess that's life and there's always a price to pay
I still live life like I'll die today
I feel so close buy I'm miles away
Judgment's clouded and the skies are grey
But my niggas is dying...
We're living in a world full of guns and violence
Full of children crying
So how are you trynna stop me from even trying
When we're all still trynna cross our finish line
Got me feeling like there's something to prove
You can't win unless you something to lose
Getting tired of the scrutiny
Cause I'm trynna cross borders and they're shooting me
I should probably start writing up eulogies
Cause killing these rappers ain't new to me
Stay truthful and not even brutally
And there still ain't nothing they could do to me
[Chorus: PhilaBoi_K]
It's do or die
So I'm trynna stay alive
Long enough to make it right so I won't see my momma cry
Cause sometimes it gets hard
But I'm reaching for the stars
But you die when you're yourself and crashing down like shooting stars
Just don't shoot me...
Just please don't shoot me...
[Verse: Saint]
Don't mess with the cops cause they're killing my peeps
Guess we ain't as safe as we thought on these streets
How am I supposed to feel safe on these streets when the guns are for thugs but they point 'em at me?
He whips out the gun and he's counting to three
"Put your hands on your head and get down on your knees!"
I'm on the ground pleading like, "Officer, please! I ain't do nothing wrong. Why you causing a scene?"
Pedestrians cannot believe what they're seeing
But seeing's believing and they don't believe it
This kinda stuff's happening every season
Next thing you know, I'm on the ground bleeding
Slowly I'm dying, my soul is leaving
The media can't wait to put it on TV
A life may be lost but I'm living forever
Me and my maker be chilling together
[Chorus: PhilaBoi_K]
It's do or die
So I'm trynna stay alive
Long enough to make it right so I won't see my momma cry
Cause sometimes it gets hard
But I'm reaching for the stars
But you die when you're yourself and crashing down like shooting stars
Just don't shoot me...
Just please don't shoot me...
