Loaded Gun

(Album: Quarantine Work-Tapes, Vol. 1 - 2020)

This one's called Loaded Gun

Who wouldve thought she was hurtin she was so put together
There were remnants of her parents not sticking together
Was a good friend, had a good heart, had some plans when she got older
'Til someone said something and it weighed heavy on her shoulders

'Cause words can be a loaded gun
Don't let 'em hurt someone
Don't be the damage done
Don't let the good die young
Let 'em live to see another day
You could be the saving grace
Be careful with the words you say
Be careful where you point and aim

Who would've thought he was struggling, he was the life of the party
Was the first string at everything he was gonna be somebody
Was a touchdown from a college bound get out of town kinda ticket
'Til the hate he read on the internet took a good kid to his limits

Words can be a loaded gun
Don't let 'em hurt someone
Don't be the damage done
Don't let the good die young
Let 'em live to see another day
You could be the saving grace
Be careful with the words you say
Be careful where you point and aim

Be kind
