Kill A Man

[Verse 1]
On a stairway of a place where my head lays
My heart is racing
What I'm about to face is a tragedy
'Cause he got the best of me
So many deputies
Watching over me
And I'm saying now

[Bridge]
Imagine if you were close to the edge and about to fall, fall, fall, fall
I thought about it carefully
But my pain wouldn't stop my glock

[Chorus]
Mama, I just killed a man
Put a sparrow to his head
I pulled the trigger, now he's dead
Mama, life has just begun
And now I gotta throw it all away

[Verse 2]
In a state of shock
Who would of ever thought
K could pull the trigger
Little old me, said I could pull the trigger, trigger
Now he's lying on the floor
Cause I told him once before
Don't you ever put your hands on me no more

[Bridge]
Imagine if you were close to the edge and about to fall, fall, fall, fall
I thought about it carefully
But my pain wouldn't stop my glock

[Chorus]
Mama, I just killed a man
Put a sparrow to his head
I pulled the trigger, now he's dead
Mama, life has just begun
And now I gotta throw it all away

[Verse 3]
Oh my God what have I done
I took somebody's life to save a life
Hole in one

Now I'm checking my fears
Wont let me hide my tears
I told him once before
If he ever did this to me
It would be the end, be the end

[Mans Voice]
So I just Killed A Man

No more pain
No more cryin

[Bridge]
Imagine if you were close to the edge and about to fall, fall, fall, fall
I thought about it carefully
But my pain wouldn't stop my glock

[Chorus]
Mama, I just killed a man
Put a sparrow to his head
I pulled the trigger, now he's dead
Mama, life has just begun
And now I gotta throw it all away
