Don't Damn Me |
| Don’t damn me when I speak a piece of mind |
| 'Cause silence isn’t golden when I’m holding it inside |
| 'Cause I’ve been where I have been and I’ve seen what I have seen |
| I put the pen to the paper 'cause it’s all a part of me |
| Be it a song or a casual conversation |
| To hold my tongue speaks of quiet reservations |
| Your words, once heard, they can place you in a faction |
| My words may disturb, but at least there’s a reaction |
| Oh yeah, oh, oh yeah |
| Sometimes I wanna kill, sometimes I wanna die |
| Sometimes I wanna destroy, sometimes I wanna cry |
| Sometimes I could get even, sometimes I could give up |
| Sometimes I could give, sometimes I never give a fuck |
| It’s only for a while, I hope you understand |
| I never wanted this to happen, didn’t want to be a man |
| So I hid inside my world, I took what I could find |
| I cried when I was lonely, I fell down when I was blind |
| So, don’t damn me when I speak a piece of mind |
| 'Cause silence isn’t golden when I’m holding it inside |
| 'Cause I’ve been where I have been and I’ve seen what I have seen |
| I put the pen to the paper 'cause it’s all a part of me |
| How can I ever satisfy you? |
| And how can I ever make you see that |
| Deep inside, we’re all somebody |
| And it don’t matter who you, you wanna be? |
| But now I gotta smile, I hope you comprehend |
| For, this man can say it happened 'cause this child has been condemned |
| So I stepped into your world, I kicked you in the mind |
| And I’m the only witness to the nature of my crime |
| But look at what we’ve done to the innocent and young |
| Whoa, listen to who’s talking 'cause we’re not the only ones |
| The trash collected by the eyes and dumped into the brain |
| Said, it tears into our conscious thoughts, you tell me, who’s to blame? |
| I know you don’t wanna hear me cryin' |
| And I know you don’t wanna hear me deny |
| That your satisfaction lies in your illusion |
| But your delusions are yours, and not mine |
| We take for granted, we know the whole story |
| We judge a book by its cover and read what we want |
| Between selected lines |
| Don’t hail me and don’t idolize the ink |
| Or I’ve failed in my intentions, can you find the missing link? |
| Your only validation is living your own life |
| Vicarious existence is a fucking waste of time |
| So I send this song to the offended |
| I said what I meant and I’ve never pretended |
| As so many others do, intending just to please |
| If I damned your point of view, could you turn the other cheek? |
| Oh |
| Don’t damn me when I speak a piece of mind |
| 'Cause silence isn’t golden when I’m holding it inside |
| 'Cause I’ve been where I’ve been and I’ve seen what I have seen |
| I put the pen to the paper 'cause it’s all a part of me |
| Don’t damn me |
| I said, don’t damn me |
| I said, don’t hail me |
| Ah, don’t damn me |
| Ouh |
| Smoke 'em if you got 'em |
| Alright, that sucked |
