Aim Carefully
as the bullets flew through the air
I listened to the whirring
when you think about it
the bullets begin to sound
like
popping popcorn
and when it sounds like
the popcorn's almost done
and you hear just a few pops
then none
that's when it's safe to move
#
I've been through this too many times
it's been too many years
this has become second nature
after so may years
of putting the 9 mil to the line of people
after so many years
of pulling the trigger
of knowing the base of the neck was the best place
of knowing how they fell into the ditch
one
two
three
it became like a ticking clock through the years
tick
tock
and all this time
my only thought
every time
was
aim carefully
