Lyrics
He had one shot.
He missed.
Grave was open. Dirt was fresh. Cold wind running through my chest. They swore this time I wouldn’t breathe — But I don’t scare that easy.
Blood in dust. Gun still warm. I’ve seen darker than that storm. When death wrapped fingers round my sleeve — I didn’t leave.
You don’t threaten a man Who’s already crossed that line.
He should’ve taken me. Should’ve buried me deep. Should’ve finished the job While I was asleep.
Now I walk like a man Who don’t fear the grave. You can’t scare a ghost That refused to stay.
He should’ve taken me.
Devil blinked. Death stood still. Some men fold — some never will. You only get one clean shot — One.
You think I flinch? You think I break? You think I bend for heaven’s sake?
You don’t know the fire I ate.
I don’t knock twice. I don’t fall back.
He should’ve taken me. That was his mistake. Now I don’t bend. Now I don’t break.
No chain on my shadow. No dirt on my name. If you’re coming for me — Don’t hesitate.
He should’ve taken me.
You don’t get second chances With a man like me.
He should’ve taken me. Should’ve shut that door. Now I live like a man Who’s died before.
Pull the trigger. Take your aim. But if you miss — You don’t get the same.
He should’ve taken me.
