A man out the window, seven loud noises came out. I felt them all, I wonder if they know, that's how old I would've turned this year.

My name is Canvas, I'm 26, they say curiosity killed the cat, but I'm only human. It was May 26th gunshots, I hurried to my door to see a gun being aimed at a man on a bike, guess the street didn't teach him to shoot, cause now I see my own blood running lose, do you believe in second chances?
