La Petite Mort |
You think God hears a prayer said in Hell |
Just know I’m doing life in a 6 square mile cell |
That I’m sharing with a 100 000 sisters and brothers |
Were sentenced to death for sins of thy father |
and being birthed here by our mothers |
And I wouldn’t trade it in for the worlds weight in gold |
And they haven’t built one like me since me I am told |
Shot my first gun when only a few feet tall I stood |
And it wasn’t with my father out hunting in the woods |
It was in the streets of my city handgun in my hand |
Shooting at the other kids, but you wouldn’t understand |
See none of us had fathers, well our fathers weren’t a man |
It was a woman called our mother and we would struggle and |
It wasn’t living it was surviving and we were constantly at war |
War left me nerves of steel and I don’t feel much anymore |
And love is just a word that I say |
And I can’t live it because I see it get people killed all day |
3 little brothers incarcerated I don’t say it for your pity |
I mean I can still get you stabbed behind the wall if you fuck with me |
I was born to die here in Flint |
And I haven’t done that yet so in turn I ain’t done shit |
But lie here naked in the tub, filling it up with blood |
Thinkin' how I’m gonna get even, while my body drained of love |
They tried to take my life at 27 |
I tried to take my life too motherfucker it just wasn’t happening |
I just wanna shoot and bring a body back to Michigan |
That’s points on the board |
I was stayin' up all nite when you would sleep and you would snore |
And they wanna say I don’t deserve this |
I gave up my life to get here, you wanna talk about purpose |
You have no purpose speaking |
They get killed for that where I come from nearly every fuckin' evening |
La Petite Mort, |
La Petite Mort, |
La Petite Mort, |
La Petite Mort, |
Tell 'em the whole story, tell 'em you surround yourself with ill intentions |
How its bad karma and it eats at you and your henchmen |
Father can you hear this, I know I’m asking and I’m worthless |
But can you take the shackles from my ankles |
Can you remove the bracelets from my wrists |
Father can you send for me like I’ve climbed off into the wind |
And it carried me far away from here |
And I would never come back here again |
Cause father I’m a rolling stone |
And my daddys not around and my mamma ain’t home |
And the law is always coming after me |
And its like I got the Devil on the back of me |
I was brought up in schools where they shoot each other in elementary |
6 years old we put kids in the cemetery |
So when you go to bury me a 100 fuckin' men will have to carry me |
Why I’ll weigh a ton, why I’ll be carryin' a 100 fuckin' guns |
Cuz we die before we run, money don’t buy respect, money doesn’t cure pain |
It doesn’t take the scars out of my face its who I am, were not the same |
When I get down on my knees to pray the bullet wounds just ache in my legs |
And I’m not supposed to be on the worlds stage |
And People aren’t supposed to hear the words I say |
Cuz I’ve seen death and crying and suffering |
And you all speak but you’ve never seen a fuckin' thing |
Cuz you are weak cocksucker and I am KING |
Or a God in this land as a conscious being |
You know sex still sells and drugs still sell |
But the truth doesn’t sell never has never will |
I’m on the front line, I catch the bullet first |
My Brothers carry me or bury me whatever works |
Why whenever you speak its from a safe place |
Cuz you don’t wanna have all these holes in your face |
And you don’t want addicted to how your own blood tastes |
You don’t wanna have to get even for murder that’s taken place |
So I’m riding around loaded gun looking for the enemy |
Pray that when I see him God do your best to help me |
But don’t help me be the better man |
Help me have clear vision, help me have a steady hand |
Help me bring this child back to you and if his family seeks revenge well |
I’ll be sending them on up too |
Before you have an opinion know you would never do what I did to get here |
You’d never save up what I saved up |
You’d never give up what I gave up left em layin' face up |
So this morning when my Brothers woke |
Tell them to give my things to everyone I know |
And give a message to my father too |
Tell him I see his face on everyone I shoot |
It makes it easy to do… |
La Petite Mort |
La Petite Mort |
La Petite Mort |
La Petite Mort… |
