It could have been me,
A few feet closer
It could have been me,
Had I walked a little faster
It could have been me,
But it wasn't me, instead
It was another person who got shot dead
I happened to have detoured
To avoid the block that brings up shame
I happened to have stopped at a park,
Before I took the walk
To find relief from a stressful home
To find courage to talk on the phone
It could have been me, it was a miracle it wasn't
Demons and angels must have been fighting
But it was also a curse that I've been so near
Inches away from death
I avoid the block even more so
Hosed down with shame
Captured with blame
but now also handcuffed by fear

That sounds so scary! I hope you're okay.
Do you ever get a little bit tired of life
Like you're not really happy but you don't wanna die
Like you're hanging by a thread but you gotta survive
'Cause you gotta survive
