Shotgun Invitations

(yeah) (g-funk joint

right here) (listen)

A young girl from a rocky road meets a man hell bent

on self destruction

They start small, a few nice dates,

they see the spark like a shotgun blast The first years were

a mess, he had time to serve and couldn't look back

A place of fear where weak men bend,

a stranger returned, no longer safe

His rage and fear threw the stones,

her skin like hide can't get anything through

Two souls joined as one

Two souls bound together Two souls seeing clear

Yeah,

we're seeing clear (uh-huh)

She said 'I do' and the race was on,

get a house, buy a car and touch the stars He put

time in and lost his way,

seven days a week,

twenty-four seven Greed and dreams fill a cup

faster than poison ever will Slang drinks and did what he could,

but the books never left the red

Losing the house and losing her changed the course A fresh start

in a safe place

was his plan to rebuild

Past sins and hard truths

broke him faster than he knew

Lost and broken, the drinks came more,

a way to hide

Fail after fail, loss after loss,

he broke himself down to a lesser man

She packed her bags in her head a thousand times and waited

for the final straw

She told him why and did not cry,

she had told him one hundred times before

In total shock he reached deep,

changed his life, put down the drink

With a clear mind and a sound heart,

he rose again, the flame still bright

Would she see the change,

was it enough to win her back or just enough to save

his life

True love never dies but the fight can be on both sides

I did this shit to me while you just wait and see

Baby come back to me

(please

come back) (yeah, I'm waiting for you)
