[Verse 1]
Do you still say your prayers, little darling?
Do you go to bed at night
Praying that tomorrow
Everything will be alright?
But tomorrows fall in number
In number one by one
You wake up and you're dying
You don't even know what from
[Chorus 1]
Well, they shot you point blank
You been shot in the back
Baby, point blank
You been fooled this time, little girl, that's a fact
Right between the eyes
Baby, point blank
Right between the pretty lies that they tell
Little girl, you fell
[Verse 2]
You grew up where young girls, they grow up fast
You took what you were handed and left behind what was asked
But what they asked, baby, wasn't right
You didn't have to live that life
And I was gonna be your Romeo, you were gonna be my Juliet
These days you don't wait on Romeos, you wait on that welfare check
And on all the pretty little things that you can never have
And all the promises
Do you still say your prayers, little darling?
Do you go to bed at night
Praying that tomorrow
Everything will be alright?
But tomorrows fall in number
In number one by one
You wake up and you're dying
You don't even know what from
[Chorus 1]
Well, they shot you point blank
You been shot in the back
Baby, point blank
You been fooled this time, little girl, that's a fact
Right between the eyes
Baby, point blank
Right between the pretty lies that they tell
Little girl, you fell
[Verse 2]
You grew up where young girls, they grow up fast
You took what you were handed and left behind what was asked
But what they asked, baby, wasn't right
You didn't have to live that life
And I was gonna be your Romeo, you were gonna be my Juliet
These days you don't wait on Romeos, you wait on that welfare check
And on all the pretty little things that you can never have
And all the promises
