Man Down

I didn't mean to end his life I know it wasn't right I can't even sleep at night Can't get it off my mind I need to get out of sight 'Fore I end up behind bars What started out as a simple altercation Turned into a real sticky situation Me just thinking on the time that I'm facing Makes me wanna cry 'Cause I didn't mean to hurt him Coulda been somebody's son Then I took his heart When I pulled out that gun Rum-pum-pum-pum Rum-pum-pum-pum Rum-pum-pum-pum Man down!
