Joyner Lucas — Catch A Bullet

[Intro] Let it run, yeah, Joyner... [Chorus] 'Cause every single night I stare at the ceiling If I can take the pain Then I could take a bullet If I just pulled the trigger Then that would take the feeling I wonder if it hurts I wonder if I'll feel it 'Cause every single night I stare at the ceiling If I can take the pain Then I could take a bullet If I just pulled the trigger Then that would take the feeling I wonder if it hurts I wonder if ... [Verse 1] Life's passing me by, people just staring at me Letting down a window, smoking my new kush And all I ever wanted was to make my parents happy The good American dream, life is too short And fairy tales don't exist, you don't get shit from Santa Pockets emppty to press, sleeping in different trailers I'm dreaming condos in Vegas, maybe on in Atlanta Pro'lly cop me a mansion out on a different planet Blindfolded and bounded I guess I couldn't see Watching niggas who made thinking: "That could be me" Maybe I could be famous, maybe I could be free Maybe I should just take the pain that you took from me Remember, family first, though we were unstable Who would've known that my could be my fucking angel? I wouldn't made it this far if it wasn't for your halo I promise soon as I make it we all gon' be fuego [Chorus] And every single night I stare at the ceiling If I can take the pain Then I could take a bullet If I just pulled the trigger Then that would take the feeling I wonder if it hurts I wonder if I'll feel it 'Cause every single night I stare at the ceiling If I can take the pain Then I could take a bullet If I just pulled the trigger Then that would take the feeling I wonder if it hurts I wonder if I'll feel it 'Cause every single night I stare at the ceiling If I can take the pain Then I could take a bullet If I just pulled the trigger Then that would take the feeling I wonder if it hurts I wonder if I'll feel it 'Cause every single night I stare at the ceiling If I can take the pain Then I could take a bullet If I just pulled the trigger Then that would take the feeling I wonder if it hurts I wonder if... [Verse 2] Just a youngin with [?] No direction I found myself in the face of fear If I close my eyes maybe I disappear My subconscious was spinning feelings but interfering I told God: "If you take this pain then I'll stop sinning" I got some brothers, we conversated for 5 minutes We barely know each other, I think it's the time difference Sometimes I blame myself when I spend no time with 'em Never been a gangster, I'm cut from a different cloth Don't think I'm weak 'cus you'll get to see if you piss me off Turn off the TV and brain-repeating and you niggas lost Your whole generation is built on some shit you saw Haven't spoken a while, but ain't no feelings lost And to date, you're my father, we've been through shit before Because it wasn't so easy cutting a nigga off I'm tired of facing these bridges we never get across [Chorus] But every single night I stare at the ceiling If I can take the pain Then I could take a bullet If I just pulled the trigger Then that would take the feeling I wonder if it hurts I wonder if I'll feel it 'Cause every single night I stare at the ceiling If I can take the pain Then I could take a bullet If I just pulled the trigger Then that would take the feeling I wonder if it hurts I wonder if I'll feel it But every single night I stare at the ceiling If I can take the pain Then I could take a bullet If I just pulled the trigger Then that would take the feeling I wonder if it hurts I wonder if I'll feel it 'Cause every single night I stare at the ceiling If I can take the pain Then I could take a bullet If I just pulled the trigger Then that would take the feeling I wonder if it hurts I wonder if I'll feel it
