I don't know why We load it, cock it, aim and shoot We load it, cock it, aim and shoot Living like we bulletproof We bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang I say we load it, cock it, aim and shoot Oh, we load it, cock it, aim and shoot Some will die over oil, kill over land Charge you for taxes and blame Uncle Sam Read you your rights and charge you for nothing Now who's really gangsta and tell me who's fronting? Murder your sons, ravage your daughters Here, overseas, and across those borders Tanks and missiles, bombs and grenades Inject your land with guns and AIDS You better pray to the most high or whoever you praise 'Cause politicians can't help you, they're just puppets and slaves Trying to get paid and you are too What you gonna do when the gun is pointed at you? (Like bank robbers) Living like we bulletproof We bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang We load it, cock it, aim and shoot We load it, cock it, aim and shoot (We gonna die) Well, I say we're living like we bulletproof We bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang I say we load it, cock it, aim and shoot Oh, we load it, cock it, aim and shoot (Hey world) Get you a paper, turn on the news Ride through the hood, eyewitness the blues How can you ignore it? It's easy to spot it A trap house, a liquor store, and your city's got it And my city's got it and their city's got it This world is chaotic and love is symbolic So life don't get cherished so our babies perish And your babies perish, now tell me who's careless? Now who should I pray to and what should I pray for? You can't pay the preacher for your redemption I know where we're headed, I already read it The good book done said it, like cowboys and Indians We just living like we bulletproof We bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang We load it, cock it, aim and shoot We load it, cock it, aim and shoot (We gonna die) Yeah, we living like we bulletproof We bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang I say we load it, cock it, aim and shoot We load it, cock it, aim and shoot (We gonna die in there) Luda, they say tomorrow's not promised today, but today I promise If we don't make our own way, somebody'll take it from us Snatch it like rats to cheese, so Lord, help me please 'Cause I rather die on my feet than to live on my knees Living like I'm bulletproof, cocking the glock and aim and shoot My future's ever clear, a 180 proof So I open the bottle, then swallow my pride and drink the pain away I take shots and just lay up, then fade away Dreaming of better days, dreaming of better pay But we got our work cut out for us so we better pray Pray to uphold the weak, not for eternal sleep But if I die I pray, the Lord, my soul to keep Living like we bulletproof We bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang We load it, cock it, aim and shoot We load it, cock it, aim and shoot We living like we bulletproof We bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang I say we load it, cock it, aim and shoot Oh, we load it, cock it, aim and shoot Living like we bulletproof
