At night in bed I lay
Heavy on my mind
I didn’t get shot today
I wake up in the morning
I pray dear God
Don’t let me get shot today
Grab my bag
I’m on my way
At this intersection
I’m well aware
I could get shot today
If I cut someone off
Look at them wrong
With a mean mug
On my face
I could get shot today
If I get lost on the way
I could get shot today
Hit by a stray
If I see a scuffle and decide
To stand in the way
I could get shot today
Step on a foot
In a pair of new J’s
I could get shot today
Wearing red or blue
Black or brown
I could get shot today
If I hear
CLIK CLICK
And don’t run away
I could get shot today
I understand the
Ramifications of the
Situation
In this certifiably crazy
Society
I could possibly get shot
Today
