DON’T SHOOT (Live from Forest Hills)

[Intro]
My name is Jon Bellion
Y'all have given me enough for the next six years all over again
Thank you all for coming out tonight
From the bottom of my heart, I am very conflicted about what this whole thing is
It is a very very weird fuc*** position to be in
Kinda makes me crazy sometimes
Sometimes it really is not for me, but coming back to moments like this
These are reminders, these are things that will last for the rest of my life
Thank you for making this time so special
I saw a, man, I saw a stadium making this music
And I said "I have never headlined a stadium in my life
I have no idea why we're even making this album
I have no idea why we are even doing this"
Every single song I made was stadium, stadium
We wrote it on the wall, stadium, stadium, stadium
You fast forward six fuc*** years, and for no reason, without touring
We have sold two back to back nights at a fuc*** stadium, thank you
We were out at a camp, I said "Yo, we need one more for the record
Think like Aerosmith and big and stadium
Like something you would hear a bunch of people singing
At the end of a show live blah, blah, blah...
Come on, come on, come on"
This song is called "Don't shoot the boy down"
Thank you for having me
My name is Jon Bellion

[Verse 1]
Rockets and planes
He's in the stars
That's where he plays
So watch where you aim
'Cause Mama swings
(And Papa's crazy)
Yeah, sing

[Pre-Chorus]
That's my heart, my veins
That's my blood, my bones
If you want that case
That's a case I'll close
If you're in his way
Then on my way home

[Chorus]
(Don't shoot) that boy down
He stays in the clouds
Don't shoot that boy down
I'll lay your ass out
So don't you dare shoot that boy down

[Verse 2]
Watch what you say
Careful now
Don't take the battery out his back
Or the gas out his trunk
Watch what you say
Careful now
Watch how you speak to that boy
Don't push your luck
Come on

[Pre-Chorus]
That's my heart, my veins
That's my blood, my bones
If you want that case
That's a case I'll close
If you'rе in his way
Then I'm on my way (Home)

[Chorus]
Don't shoot that boy down
He stays in the clouds
Don't shoot that boy down
I'll lay your ass out
So don't you dare shoot that boy down

[Bridge]
Don't you
Don't you dare shoot him down (Let the boy fly)
Don't you
Don't you dare shoot him down

[Pre-Chorus]
That's my heart, my veins (Veins)
That's my blood, my bones (Bones)
If you want that case (Case)
That's a case I'll close (Close)
If you're in his way
Then, I'm on my way home

[Chorus]
(Don't shoot that boy down)
He stays in the clouds
Don't shoot that boy down
I'll lay your ass out (I will)

[Outro]
That's my heart, that's my veins
That's my blood, that's my bones
That's my heart, that's my veins
That's my blood, that's my bones
That's my heart, that's my veins
That's my blood, that's my bones
Don't you shoot that boy
Don't you shoot that boy
My name is Jon Bellion
Thank you so much for having me
Goodnight!
