Lyrics:

Why you got that gun in your hand
Is there somebody you plan on pointing it at?
Why you got that look in your eye
Like you mean business, I try
Talk you out of that

I told him not to push me
Said \'I don't want a fight\'
I'm a sensitive heart wanting a peaceful life
You know he wouldn't listen, and he stepped out of line
Now Nicky made his mistake for the very last time

We don't have to get upset (but it's always an option)
We could forgive and forget (it's not always an option)
We don't have to get upset

Why you got that tear in your eye
You wear a look of surprise, do you know what you've done?
If I said you were an innocent man, with blood on his hands
Would you still try to run?

I know he had it coming
He brought pressure, no peace
I was out of choices and I needed release (I needed release)
You know he wouldn't listen, and he stepped out of line
Now Nicky made his mistake for the very last time

We don't have to get upset (but it's always an option)
We could forgive and forget (it's not always an option)
We don't have to get upset

We don't have to get upset (but it's always an option)
We could forgive and forget (it's not always an option)
We don't have to get upset
