"Shot Me Down" lyrics

"Shot Me Down"

Tired
Icarus, them wings'll take you higher
Moving off the fuel of my desire
Cupid load the Uzi up and fire

Got them wings from my father figures
They would always tell me to fly high (So high)
It's gon' feel like Poseidon hit you
If you ever let a young man go dive
We ain't scared to fly, we scared to dive (Deeper, deeper)
We ain't scared of heights, we scared of depth
Hmm, fear of the unknown
Fear that history repeats itself
Fear that everybody's all for themselves
I know you want me, don't be scared to admit that's a fact
You running up and down just to see who got your back
I tell you all my secrets when we're all alone
But it's fact that you act like it's always an act
When we behind your back and that's why I be so

Tired
Icarus, them wings'll take you higher
Moving off the fuel of my desire
Cupid load the Uzi up and fire
Tired
Icarus, them wings'll take you higher
Moving off the fuel of my desire
Cupid load the Uzi up and fire (Shot me down)

Young boys put feelings in a jar
Concealed from the real to remove from the heart
I'm too grown to be frontin' when I'm feelin' Michael Ealy
Actin' like it really ain't appealing when you are
Ducking and dodging your feelings
'Cause these niggas movin' reptilian
What good is a million one night stands
When I got this one in a million with me now?
Her eyes, that's how she caught me
Surprise is how she caught me
Baby, you're authentic, I put my all in it
Love is that hole we made, in hopes one day
We both gon' fall in it now

'Bout time I feel it, 'bout time I feel it
'Bout time I feel it, baby, 'bout time I feel it
'Bout time I feel it, baby 'bout time I feel it
'Bout time I feel it, baby
'Bout time you shot me out the sky

Tired
Icarus, them wings'll take you higher
Moving off the fuel of my desire
Cupid load the Uzi up and fire
Tired
Icarus, them wings'll take you higher
Moving off the fuel of my desire
Cupid load the Uzi up and fire (Shot me down, shot me down)

Yeah
Shot me down
Shot me down, mmh
Shot me down, mmh
Shot me down
