lyrics

Intro

All these bullets I ain’t got no gun x 4

Verse 1

All these bullets I ain’t got no gun
Gonna get me one I’m gonna get me one
I got all this love
I ain’t got no one
Gonna get me some I’m gonna get me some
I’m not complaining
Sometimes I stand out in the rain
Don’t know why
Can’t explain it
Can’t relate to a blue sky
Like all my

Chorus

People and Planes
Bullets and bombs
Where will they land
When will it end
What could go wrong?

People and Planes
Bullets and bombs
Where will they land
When will it end
What could go wrong?
What could go

Verse 2

All this smoke
I ain’t got no light
Somebody did you wrong and now you wanna fight
Just like
All the angry people in the world tonight
Ain’t that right

Don’t say you ain’t that kinda man
Cuz well it’s just the modern man that’s livin
In this time of man you know I
Been a familiar stranger a fallen angel
Can’t get to heaven only as high as my

Chorus

Bridge

Can’t get to heaven only as high as my
Can’t get to heaven only as high as my
Can’t get to heaven only as high as my
Can’t get to heaven only as high as my people

Can’t get to heaven only as high as my
Can’t get to heaven only as high as my
Can’t get to heaven only as high as my
Can’t get to heaven only as high as my people
As my people

Chorus 3

People and Planes
Bullets and bombs
Where will they land
When will it end
What could go wrong?
What could go wrong?
