They Shootin'
2 Dope Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

A bullet flew through my window and shot my clock
I ran out onto the front porch and stood there shot
They all out here shooting up and down the street
I joined in on the action I blast my heat
Ratatat automatic attack asporatic
Shot two more hood and a straight crack
I didn't take time to reload as guns explode
Bodies and bloodstains all over the road
I call the police they came with sirens
Pulled up on the lawn saw me and started firing
I barely espaced I ain't seen this coming
But everywhere I turn in this city they gunning on me
They Shootin' silver bullets in my fucking head
I said they shootin' silver bullets in my motherfuckin head y'all
BamX16
They Shootin' silver bullets in my fucking head
I said they shootin' silver bullets in my motherfuckin head y'all
BamX16
They're all on the roofs running and shooting each other
Your wife, your mother, your brother, any motherfucker
Comes out and blast its all in the air
Random bullets whizzing off my shit everywhere
I shot a bitch in the ear hold 'em under the curse
Old ladies and priests shoot it out in a church
I'm shot twice in the neck but I'm all the way alive
If this is all I'm getting fuck it I'm gonna survive
Two clips and 45 and double barrel mosburgh
Aiming straight for the chest fuck a cosbourgh
Everyones armed with the tensions of horror
Fuck it do not remain calm sound the alarm
They Shootin' silver bullets in my fucking head
I said they shootin' silver bullets in my motherfucking head y'all
BamX16
They Shootin' silver bullets in my fucking head
I said they shootin' silver bullets in my motherfucking head y'all
Bamx32
I felt the bullet go and pelt me in the back of the neck
A little kid with red eyes I blasted him back
All lights been shot out It's dark out here
Listen to the hollow points whistle through the air
Known two people seen working together
As soon as they load up that blast on each other
I'm shooting on anybody moving at all
I'm wounded hiding in the back of a strip
While the nights get quieter as time moves on
Less people alive nobody moves a thumb
Anyone cocksucker gets picked off quick
The worlds going out on some pissed off shit
They Shootin' silver bullets in my fucking head
I said they shootin' silver bullets in my motherfucking head y'all
BamX16
They Shootin' silver bullets in my fucking head




I said they shootin' silver bullets in my motherfucking head y'all

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of 2 Dope’s song “They Shootin’” depict a vivid image of a violent shooting spree. The artist explains that he gets caught in the crossfire due to the non-stop shooting on the streets. He grabs his gun and joins in the shooting, killing two more people before he runs out of bullets. He calls the police for help, but instead, they start firing on him. The artist realizes that he is surrounded, and the whole city seems to be against him. The song continues to describe the violent situation, with people shooting from rooftops, inside churches, and everywhere else. The artist is shot twice in the neck, but he remains alive and continues to shoot. As time passes, the city becomes quieter, and fewer people are alive. The song ends on a note of apocalypse, where the world seems to be coming to an end, and the shooting never stops.
