"Don't Shoot The Messenger" lyrics
I said I'm done with overthinking it it's over and done
I hold myself liable and I ain't holding my tongue
I ain't a motormouth I'm making sure the motor would run
Aye don't go shooting at the messenger and loading your gun
I figured out a long time ago I know what I need
And if the cops behind me I won't lower my speed
I found the way that I'ma get it don't go blowing the lead
They see my face on the screen when they open the feed
Now make that shit drop
How you keep on driving in circles without a pit stop
I was never bagging the purple inside a zip lock
I was writing raps in the journal and called it hip hop
I was tryna grasp it internally keep it tip top
One man trying to push the limit oh my
Never grew wings but I said I'd go fly
Hit me with a low blow I still go high
Won't stoop to their level and you know why
And you know why and you know why
And you know why and you know
I said I'm done with overthinking it it's over and done
I hold myself liable and I ain't holding my tongue
I ain't a motormouth I'm making sure the motor would run
Aye don't go shooting at the messenger and loading your gun
I got my Battery charged hit the strategy
It's crazy that you mad I'm finally eating cuz I practically starved
I've seen my darkest days left me practically scarred
And now I'm feeling if I want it then it's actually ours
You gotta move with the way of the wind
You gotta move
Don't snooze cuz I probably won't say it again
You gotta move with the way of the wind
You gotta move
Keep it cool aye fuck it we gon play it again
Now make that shit drop
How you keep on driving in circles without a pit stop
I was never bagging the purple inside a zip lock
I was writing raps in the journal and called it hip hop
I was tryna grasp it internally keep it tip top
Tip toe try to go a little bit higher
Set a goal even if the set back minor
I'ma still go without the tread on my tires
What you thought I wasn't on fire?
I'm fired up
And you know why and you know why
And you know why and you know
I said I'm done with overthinking it it's over and done
I hold myself liable and I ain't holding my tongue
I ain't a motormouth I'm making sure the motor would run
Aye don't go shooting at the messenger and loading your gun
I hold myself liable and I ain't holding my tongue
I ain't a motormouth I'm making sure the motor would run
Aye don't go shooting at the messenger and loading your gun
I figured out a long time ago I know what I need
And if the cops behind me I won't lower my speed
I found the way that I'ma get it don't go blowing the lead
They see my face on the screen when they open the feed
Now make that shit drop
How you keep on driving in circles without a pit stop
I was never bagging the purple inside a zip lock
I was writing raps in the journal and called it hip hop
I was tryna grasp it internally keep it tip top
One man trying to push the limit oh my
Never grew wings but I said I'd go fly
Hit me with a low blow I still go high
Won't stoop to their level and you know why
And you know why and you know why
And you know why and you know
I said I'm done with overthinking it it's over and done
I hold myself liable and I ain't holding my tongue
I ain't a motormouth I'm making sure the motor would run
Aye don't go shooting at the messenger and loading your gun
I got my Battery charged hit the strategy
It's crazy that you mad I'm finally eating cuz I practically starved
I've seen my darkest days left me practically scarred
And now I'm feeling if I want it then it's actually ours
You gotta move with the way of the wind
You gotta move
Don't snooze cuz I probably won't say it again
You gotta move with the way of the wind
You gotta move
Keep it cool aye fuck it we gon play it again

Aye don't go shooting at the messenger and loading your gun
