shot my baby

Daniel Caesar

Starin out my window
Pistol in my palms
Tears soakin my pillow
As I write this song

I caught my lady being untrue
Oh, what was I supposed to do, oh, no
I had to prove myself a man
Cause clearly she don t think I can, oh, no

Singin ?yes
I shot my baby down that day
Singin ?yes
That nigga too, he stole my place
(Shot down, shot down my baby, I shot down)

I stepped inside the room I still have dreams about it
What did I see?
His arms are wrapped around you like he s been about it
I couldn t believe
Expression that I ve never seen you wear before
Clothes that I bought strewn on the floor
Quietly I closed that bedroom door
Head?d downstairs to the kitchen drawer

Singin ?y?s
I shot my baby down that day
(Shot down, shot down my baby, I shot down)
Singin ?yes
That nigga too, he stole my place, my place
(Shot down, shot down my baby, I shot down)
(Shot down, shot down my baby, I shot down)
(Shot down, shot down my baby, I shot down)

Singin ?yes
I shot my baby down that day
Singin ?yes
That nigga too, he stole my place, my place

(Shot down, shot down my baby, I shot down)
(Shot down, shot down my baby, I shot down)
